Abstract
At home and abroad, this chapter carries out the first detailed investigation on the climate characteristics of wind energy resource along the Maritime Silk Road. A series of key parameters are defined: availability of wind energy (effective wind speed occurrence, EWSO), available level occurrence (ALO, occurrence of WPD greater than 100 W/m2) moderate level occurrence (MLO, occurrence of WPD greater than 150 W/m2) rich level occurrence (RLO, occurrence of WPD greater than 200 W/m2) excellent level occurrence (ELO, occurrence of WPD greater than 300 W/m2) superb level occurrence (SLO, occurrence of WPD greater than 400 W/m2), to describe the availability and richness of wind energy. Systematically considering the wind power density, energy availability, energy level occurrences, energy stability, monthly and seasonal variability of wind energy, energy storage, the temporal-spatial distribution characteristics of wind energy along the Maritime Silk Road are analyzed, to provide theoretical support for the energy classification, short-term forecast and long-term projection of wind energy.
