The study is used to assess the wind energy potential of Maiduguri and Potiskum, two sites in North-East, Nigeria. 21 years (1987–2007) monthly mean wind data at 10 m height were assessed from the Nigeria Meteorological department and subjected to 2-parameter Weibull and other statistical analyzes. The result showed that average monthly mean wind speed variation for Potiskum ranged from 3.90 to 5...
The objective of this study was to assess the potential viability of the wind resource potential in Jos, Plateau state, Nigeria for power generation. The monthly mean wind speeds that span from 1987 to 2007 were employed to statistically analyze the monthly, annual and seasonal potentials of the wind energy resources at the site. Besides, the results were employed together with two models of wind...
The Electric Industry is undergoing significant and irreversible changes worldwide. This is reshaping the industry that has been remarkably stable for a long time and characterised by vertically integrated structure. In radial networks such as the structure of Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) owned grid, the losses are expectedly high [7]. Transmission losses alone represents up to 5–15% of...
