Statistical analysis of wind energy in Markazi Province Case Study: Saveh Station

Wind potential for clear energy production in most of Iran regions is very high. In this paper a statistical analysis on wind data of Saveh station in Markazi province is implemented. Renewable energy organization of Iran’s 12-monthed data are used for wind energy calculations. Wind velocity at 40, 30 and 10 meter height is studied firstly. Mean wind velocity on this section at mentioned height is 4.6, 4.47, 4.06 m/s respectively. Also windrose of wind blow direction is investigated. Using windrose graph, wind velocity and direction at 30 and 37.5 meters height is presented. Dominant wind direction is between north and north east. According to Saveh station wind rose dominant wind direction is fixed. It's important in turbines arrangement, because wind direction fixing is an important advantage for a wind power-station. Annual wind mean power at 10, 30 and 40 meters height show that maximum of wind power production is on MAY. Also with evaluation the annual wind average power at heights of 10, 30 and 40 meters can be seen 40 and 30 meters heights for installing wind turbines are suitable.
