| Abstract | This paper presents a statistical analysis of wind characteristics and estimating of cost of six locations situated in Algeria, namely Adrar, Annaba, Bejaia, Kacer-Chellala, M'sila and Oran, using Weibull distribution function on wind speed data at 10 m height collected in the last ten years by the Algerian Meteorological Office. The wind energy production using the economic evaluation of various wind generator turbine (WGT) enjoying the 18, 30, 80, 140, 150 and 200 KW rated power size. In Adrar and M'sila , the electricity generation cost per KW from WGT 150 KW does not exceed 0.058 USD /KWh compared to price of electricity in Algeria 0.054 USD /KWh. |
