Mean Annual Wind Speed m/s Zambia 100m 2004-2015 WBG
Data derived from WRF simulated wind speed for the period from 15/04/2004 to 15/04/2014 at a horizontal resolution of 2 km; Mean wind speed at 100 m agl from 15/04/2004 to 15/04/2014 in [m/s]. This 2-km resolution wind atlas is based on a complete 10-year simulation of the local and regional wind flows. The wind simulation was generated using DNV's GL Wind Mapping System (WMS): a dynamic downscaling system developed to generate high-resolution mesoscale wind maps.The map is an un-validated, satellite-derived estimate. As part of phase II of the WBG initiative, these maps will be validated through the use of ground measurement data, and until the data collection period is finished should be considered for policy use, rather than energy prospecting, following IRENA's classification of renewable energy data.
