Wind power and the UK wind resource
, 2005 The importance of wind power to the UK's renewable electricity supply is predicted to increase in the coming years. Together with this greater reliance on wind power there is a greater need for understanding the characteristics of the UK's wind resource.

Wind power in Denmark! Wind power in Sweden?
Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1988Abstract It is now fifteen years since the oil crisis started the hunt for “new” energy sources. In Denmark and Sweden modern national wind energy programmes started around 1975 to investigate the possibilities for using wind power and eventually erect windmills.

Power system requirements for wind power
2005The power system requirements for wind power mainly depend on the power system configuration, the installed wind power capacity, and how the wind power production varies. Wind resources vary on every time scale: seconds, minutes, hours, days, months and years. On all these time scales, the varying wind resources affect the power system.

Publisher Summary This chapter describes the wind power technology and applications. Medium sized wind turbines have to be used in connection with a large electrical grid. These machines have a turbine diameter of 7–17 m and a power output of 10–75 kW. Wind energy can only be economical in areas of good wind availability.
