Wind Power Potential over the Worlds Deepest River Valley

摘要：

　　Wind power potential prevailing over the worlds deepest river gorge,the Kali Gandaki River Valley,located in the western Trans Himalaya region ofNepal,has been assessed and mapped at 1km x 1km horizontal grid resolution with the application of Weather Research and Forecasting(WRF)Modeling System.The wind power potential map cover 70 km x 70 km area,which encloses the very first and failed wind power project in the country and the Jomsom Airport at the center.The simulated wind characteristics compare well with the available observed wind characteristic.The wind power potential appears to vary from good to outstanding over 200 kfr12 area along the axis of Kaligandaki River Valley in Jomsom area.However,a detail long-term observations,numerical simulation as well as more engineering examinations are desired to address abnormal valley wind characteristicsfor sustainable wind power development in the area.
