MesoMap system and historical weather data. Although
it is believed to represent an accurate overall picture
of the wind energy resource, estimates at any location
should be confirmed by measurement.
The generalized transmission line information was obtained
by AWS Truewind from the Global Energy Decisions Velocity
Suite. AWS does not warrant the accuracy of the transmission
