Abstract

The paper aims to investigate the wind conditions at 150 m above the surface, using the extreme value theory, a branch of statistics dealing with the extreme deviations from the median of probability distributions, and the physical model of the MERRA 2 global reanalysis data set in the nearby area of Cobadin Commune, Constanta County, Romania. The insights of the wind characteristics and the knowledge of the extreme values of the wind speed can be useful, not just for the designers, in the rational assessment of the structural safety of wind turbines, but also those evaluating the insured losses.
