The map shows the average wind speed at 150 m above ground level. This was modelled throughout North Rhine-Westphalia in a resolution of 100 x 100 m and validated with the yields of existing wind turbines in North Rhine-Westphalia. The mean wind speed is an average of the wind speeds occurring over the year. The mean wind speed gives an indication of how a site is suitable for wind energy use.

The map shows the average wind speed at an altitude of 225 m above ground. This was modelled throughout North Rhine-Westphalia in a resolution of 100 x 100 m and validated with the yields of existing wind turbines in North Rhine-Westphalia. The mean wind speed is an average of the wind speeds occurring over the year. The mean wind speed gives an indication of how a site is suitable for wind energy use.
