REDUCING BLACKOUTS VIA WIND POWER, A SPARSE GRID CASE IN LEBANON

Abstract :
The statistical analysis of wind speed is an essential requirement in estimating the wind energy potential to generate electrical power by grouping and assessing the yearly observations of a selected site. In our attempt to study the wind energy potential in Lebanon we propose an estimation of wind potential by analyzing the wind characteristics of nine regions where the meteorological stations are located. The Weibull distribution function and its parameters were determined and the energy potential of the wind was assessed in each of the studied sites. The comparison of the resulting power density with the PNL classification scheme in Dahr-El-Baidar, Ksara, Marjayoun and Qlaiat proved that Lebanon posses an important opportunity to generate electric power from wind especially during seasons of peak consumption.
