CONCLUSIONS

Initial analyses of wind speed across the agroclimatic zones show that Northern dry zone in Karnataka has good wind potential, which if exploited would help local industries and agriculture. These initial tabulations can be used for preliminary strategic wind power planning, by detailed study at proposed sites.
