Wind resource assessment in the Edinburgh region

TL;DR: In this paper, an initial analysis of ten years of met office data was performed to assess the potential of wind energy resource in built-up areas and the results related to wind energy potential are given in terms of statistical analysis that includes yearly average wind speed, standard deviation in yearly wind data, prevailing wind direction, wind speed frequency distribution, probability density function (pdf), cumulative distribution function (cdf), wind power density estimation, and available wind energy calculation.
