Abstract
This analysis aims to identify appropriate technology options for wind energy converters across all sizes by matching the sizes of the primary mover and the time scales of the extraction and conversion processes to the wind conditions as quantified by mean winds and turbulence intensity. The approach was to set out the options in a process tree and then group technology options according to common characteristics which can be used to estimate productivity in wind scenarios characterised by the wind speed, wind direction and turbulence statistics.
