Wind power priority generation hours

Hourly wind report with forecasts as published by ERCOT. This report is published each hour and includes System-wide and geographic regional hourly averaged wind power production, forecasts, and the High Sustainable Limit (HSL) of online resources in the Current. . The Plant-Level US multi-model WIND and generation (PLUSWIND) data repository helps to address these challenges. PLUSWIND provides wind speeds and estimated generation on an hourly basis at almost all wind plants across the contiguous United States from 2018–2021. Good places for wind turbines are where the annual average wind speed is at least 9 miles per hour (mph)—or 4. running full time at rated power.
