5.0 out of 5 stars A must for everyone interested in Wind Power business and Technology, 4 Jul 2008

By	A. Lopes (Portugal) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a very well written book, covering all the aspects in wind power business It goes from the very basics of the wind resource, to the project economics and environmental impact, including also other aspects related with the turbine technology (electrical, mechanical, aerodynamics, control) and electrical network integration.
Of course that no one will be an imediate expert ready to embrace a wind farm project after reading the book. But there are no such books, right? only experience will give that. Anyhow this is a good startup and I definetely recomend it for anyone interested in this area.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good and complete explanation but no worked examples, 4 April 2009

By	Andrew Ganteng - See all my reviews

This book explained in detail and thorough about wind energy. the bad things are no worked examples at all, the authors mentioned many times the word 'yaw' but forgot to explained what it is. the quality of pictures are just fair
