Wind potential is one of the key criteria. However, site access, terrain, grid connection, turbine placement and transmission infrastructure must also be evaluated together.
Wind measurements determine average speed, direction, continuity and turbulence characteristics in the region. These data are important for production forecasting and turbine selection.
The potential or kinetic energy of water is used to rotate turbines. Turbine movement is transferred to the generator, where mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy.
Depending on the project, components may include water conveyance systems, turbines, generators, transformers, switchgear, control systems and transmission lines.
Each energy source has different technical requirements. Terrain, climate, transportation, connection points and environmental conditions can directly affect system design and implementation methods.
