How much energy a wind farm will produce is the biggest driver of wind farm economics. Accurate resource assessment is critical in developing successful wind projects and has a direct impact on which projects are financed and constructed and which are not. At the American Wind Energy Association Wind Resource and Project Energy Assessment Conference, meteorologists and engineers highlight recent advances and debate the critical issues affecting wind resource assessment.
