Wind resources

Description

On behalf of the NVE, Kjeller Vindteknikk has conducted a nationwide survey of wind resources across mainland Norway and the sea areas outside. The maps have a horizontal resolution of 1x1 km and provide an estimated annual mean wind at an altitude of 50, 80 and 120 metres above the ground, respectively. The maps are available as downloadable PDF files. In addition to wind maps, maps of terrain complexity and icing with the same resolution (1x1 km) have also been prepared. The terrain complexity map gives an indication of how vulnerable an area will be to turbulent wind currents. Turbulent wind currents can be a challenge for wind turbines and will normally contribute to reduced power generation and increased wear and tear on the turbine. Icing on turbine blades can in exposed, particularly higher elevations, be a major problem and, among other things, contribute to a reduced turbine efficiency that will have an impact on annual production.
