In the framework of the Regional Baltic Wind Energy Programme, sponsored by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) through UNDP, a publicly available wind resource database for the wind-energy relevant areas of the Baltic countries Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania has been established. A 2-year measurement campaign has been performed based on 7 stations in the coastal area: the 3 Lithuanian sites Kretinga, Vilkyciai and Taurage; the Latvian site Särnate; and the 3 Estonian sites Prangli, Virtsu and Uulu. In addition, private data measured at the Estonian site Türisalu was made available to the project. The atlas, as well as a database of wind measurements, can be downloaded here.
An updated and extended wind atlas for the Gulf of Suez, Egypt, has been published by the New and Renewable Authority in Cairo and Risø National Laboratory in Roskilde.
