Wind energy generation and forecasts: a case study of Darling and Vredenburg sites
This research study presents the wind resource assessment at two potential onshore wind sites at the Western Cape of South Africa for small and large scale wind energy generation. It is anticipated that by virtue of the enormous wind resources prevalent along the South Africa West Coast, it is …

Capability of Zambian industries to manufacture grid-scale wind turbine blades and towers.
… has led to the inception of grid-scale wind power feasibility studies at ten sites distributed around the country. These feasibility studies were aimed at establishing the availability of the wind resource for grid-scale power generation. This will lead to the development of the wind …

An exploration of South Africa's wind climate using station records and reanalysis data
Sparse information about the wind climate of South Africa behooves an exploration of the drivers of surface wind speed, especially in the context of wind resource assessment. This work quantifies the coupling between the synoptic circulation states and station-scale flows to develop a process-based …
