Abstract
The advancement of wind energy farms in the developed part of the world has dramatically reduced the cost of wind energy turbine systems down to a competitive price and has contributed to a reduction in global warming, which affects the worldwide population. The renewed interest in a sustainable, avoidable, and reliable energy system has contributed to the actions of the federal government of Nigeria regarding renewable energy systems. Many projects have been completed using solar energy in rural communities as well as with government higher institutions of learning, while little attention has been on wind energy, except for the 10 MW land base in a village in the Kastina State. In this study, the stages of development were itemized in regard to the assessment, economic analysis, and hybrid system of wind energy in Nigeria. The available reported wind speed were studied at 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 m. Recommendations were highlighted to enhance wind energy research, development, and its application.
