Letter on wind farm

Dear Editor,
Studies conducted by the US National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL is the facility of the US Department of Energy (DOE) for renewable energy and energy efficiency research, development and deployment) show that the northern parts of Maldives are best for developing wind generated power systems.
According to the survey the resource potential for a large scale application in Gaafaru is moderate and good for a small scale application.
The wind power density at a height of 50m is in a range of 325W/m² to 350W/m² for an average wind speed at sea level of 6.5m/s to 6.7m/s. This makes the project at Gaafaru more than feasible in terms of wind resources.
It is also nice to note that something so interesting with real value in economic terms if successful is being undertaken by the Maldives.

The map can be found on page 66 of the report.
