In the last years, the use of wind turbines for power generation has increase due to the advance's technology used and the stable cost. In this paper, due to the low investment in the desert regions of Fezouata, Ouijjane, El Ouatia, and Taroudannt in Morocco, we have considered wind resources as an ideal option. Using meteorological statistics, Weibull's distribution function was able to estimate the wind power and potential of four various wind turbines for each site with various nominal powers, ranging from 250 kW to 2000 kW, for use in wind farms. 24 years of wind speed data to fit the Weibull distribution. For the four provinces examined, the annual mean value of wind speed and frequency distributions were collected. The desert province of El Ouatia shows that it is economically feasible to install a wind farm for the production of green energy.
This article studies the wind energy potential in the Taroudannt province by means of 09-years (2010-2018) wind speed data at 10 m altitude of wind energy using twoparameter Weibull distribution in Morocco, in order to develop this desert area which suffers from long dry seasons and poorly developed energy resources. The results provided the opportunity to implement and develop the urban wind energy sector in the Taroudannt province. The mean monthly wind speed and power density were calculated. Compared to other technologies, considered for their reasonable cost, the EWT DW 52-500kW-50m wind turbine offered the best capacity factor of 13.81% and the best energy production more than 785 MWh. After analyzing the generation of wind energy, the province of Taroudannt must install wind turbines with a high blade height of more than 50 m in order to achieve an efficient harvest.
