AWS Truepower (AWST) released a statement calling into question recent media reports claiming an observed decline in wind speeds during the past few decades across the Northern Hemisphere. If true, such a decline could have serious consequences for the development of wind energy projects, which depend on a stable wind climate.
After a review and analysis of available data, AWS Truepower believes that no significant decline in wind speeds has been definitively observed. Further, our scientists find the results of these studies inconclusive and believe that the available data does not support findings of a significant global or hemispheric trend in wind speeds.
