To maximize the return of investment, the design of a wind turbine is determined on the 50-year return period of sustained wind speed. Stable and consistent wind speed is one of the major determining factors when considering turbine design and wind turbine farm placement. Cornell researchers Sara C. Pryor, professor in the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, and Rebecca J. Barthelmie, professor in the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, recently released a new global wind atlas—a digital compendium of sites around the world with extreme wind speeds.

States and regions are key to tackling climate change and have set themselves ambitious targets states and regions are important climate actors and their position means they have the power to make key decisions in policy areas such as: state and regional governments are at the frontline of cutting emissions to meet regional and national targets. To meet these targets, state and regional governments need to be equipped to measure and record their emissions in regional greenhouse gas inventories.
