Assessment of annual wind energy potential for three selected
sites in Iraq has been analyzed in the present work. The wind
velocities data from August 2014 to July 2015 were collected
from the website of Weather Underground Organization
(WUO) at stations elevation (35m, 32m, and 17m) for
Baghdad, Najaf, and Kut Al-Hai respectively. Extrapolation
of stations elevation and wind velocities was used to estimate
wind velocities at (60m, 90m, and 120m). The objectives are
to analyze the wind speed data and assess the wind energy
potential for wind energy applications. Computer code for
MATLAB software has been developed to solve the
mathematical model. The results are presented as a monthly
and annual average for wind velocities, standard deviat
