Uncertainties in wind resource assessment is a critical parameter

Not long ago, Chevron’s exploration teams were stuck. Several years earlier they had struck oil at a place called Rosebank, 9,000 feet below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean west of Britain’s Shetland Islands.

The implementation of nanotechnology into wind energy applications, is bringing together different methodologies and techniques to address more effectively some of the great challenges facing the science of wind engineering.
