This project will study the wind energy and wind assessment in some selected sites such as Asabah, Tarhunah, Alheira, Ghutalriah, and Msalath, this project will first provide background information about wind power and its resource, including a review of available data, which are obtained from the Renewable energies. For each location, long term time series of 10-minutes measured wind data will be used; the wind data has been recalculated to represent the actual wind speed at hub height. The mean wind speed, the Weibull distribution, power density function, annual energy and annual capacity factor will be calculated for each site. Tarhunah has the maximum annual energy and capacity factor while Ghut-alriah has the minimum annual energy and capacity factor. Existing data resources indicates that the mean annual wind speed of over 7.67 m/s in Tarhunah with theoretical capacity factor exceeding 44.13522 %. These values indicate that Tarhunah could generate an annual energy 1275861 kWh. Knowing that Excel and SPSS were used in the calculations and drawing conclusions.
