Land-Based Wind Data Update
Land-Based Wind Data Update
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory compiled and synthesized empirical data on the U.S. land-based wind energy sector. The focus is on land-based wind turbines over 100 kW in size, though the “Installation Data” and “Industry Data” sections often contain combined data inclusive of all utility-scale wind installations. Data sources are diverse.
The Excel data file includes the resulting data synthesis and related figures, with 61 tabs that cover:
(1) installation data and trends;
(2) industry data and trends;
(3) technology data and trends;
(4) performance data and trends;
(5) cost data and trends;
(6) power sales price and levelized cost data and trends; and
(7) cost and value comparisons.
The PDF file simply compiles the various figures and tables that are also included in the Excel file.
A number of interactive data visualizations are also available, under the “Tools & Data” tab.
