Wind Studies and Their Significance
The Big Stone Wind, LLC investors recognized the immediate need to install equipment to measure on-site wind data. Because of this excellent decision, we now have well over one year of accurate documentation of the project area’s wind resource.
Why is this important?
-Long-term energy production estimates can be calculated
-Ensures financial viability of the wind farm
-Wind turbine layouts can be designed
-Financial institutions and utilities require a minimum of one year of data before they consider participating in a project
