Renewable Energy, 1997, vol. 11, issue 4, 479-483

Abstract: Weibull parameters of the wind speed distribution function were computed for 49 weather stations in Palestine. Wind potentials in kWh/m2 yr were calculated at the above stations, then contours of wind potential were drawn. Electricity from the wind can be generated, in some locations in the West Bank, at a cost of 0.07 $/kWh.
