Abstract
The objective of this joint DOE and National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) project is to determine whether wind turbines can reduce costs by providing power to U.S. military facilities in high wind areas. In support of this objective, one year of data on the wind resources at several Fort Huachuca sites was collected. The windresource data were analyzed and used as input to an economic study for a wind energy installation at Fort Huachuca. The results of this study are presented in this report.
