Synopsis

This book is structured to guide readers systematically through the lifecycle of a wind power project:

  • Chapters 1–3 introduce wind as a resource, how it is measured, modeled, and assessed, and how optimal sites are selected.
  • Chapters 4–7 focus on technology, design, construction, and operational best practices.
  • Chapters 8–9 examine the economic, financial, and regulatory frameworks, including policy, incentives, and environmental and social considerations.
  • Chapter 10 looks to the future, exploring offshore and floating wind, hybrid systems, energy storage integration, and emerging innovations powered by AI and digital technologies.
By the end of this book, readers will not only understand the science and engineering behind wind power but also the strategic and operational decisions that drive successful projects. The knowledge presented here is designed to help unlock opportunities, mitigate risks, and support the sustainable expansion of wind energy globally.
