Correct estimation of the energy available in the wind can make or break the economics of wind plant development.
wind plant construction will have significant economic benefits.
wind plant operation will provide additional annual economic benefits.
Facilities are also available to manufacturers, wind plant operators, and utilities for research and technical support.
Accurate representation of these cost streams is critical in estimating a wind plant's cost of energy.
At the same time, there is a renewed political impetus to encourage further wind plant development.
Engineers then design the wind plant, working with the utility companies and communities.
