MODERN CIVILIZATION THRIVES ON A CONSTANT FLOW OF ENERGY AND MATERIAL GOODS, OBTAINED FROM NATURAL RESOURCES SUCH AS FOSSIL FUELS, MINERALS AND BIOMASS. THIS LEADS TO THE PRODUCTION OF LARGE AMOUNTS OF WASTE, WHICH BECOMES DIFFICULT TO HANDLE. SUCH A LINEAR ECONOMIC SYSTEM IS NOT SUSTAINABLE HAVING NEGATIVE EFFECTS FOR OUR PLANET.

In the energy sector, fossil fuel sources have been the main energy source due to their relatively low price. However, our energy demand is predicted to rise in the future, and we can no longer rely on finite and polluting energy sources. In the last decade, we have seen a positive shift towards expanding our renewable energy capacity, both on a local and global level.

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.
