This review is from: 21st Century Complete Guide to Wind Energy and Wind Turbines, Wind Power, Wind Energy Resource Atlas, Meteorological Measurements, Technical Reports, ... Energy Lab NREL (Two CD-ROM Superset) (CD-ROM)
These reports are so poor! Reports are not worth buying and reading.

2.0 out of 5 stars The information is there if you can find it (at least I think it is)., November 10, 2006
This review is from: 21st Century Complete Guide to Wind Energy and Wind Turbines, Wind Power, Wind Energy Resource Atlas, Meteorological Measurements, Technical Reports, ... Energy Lab NREL (Two CD-ROM Superset) (CD-ROM)
There appears to be a world of information on the disks, which makes it all the more frustrating dealing with such a poorly conceived search system. I am sure it would rate much higher if I could get to what I am looking for.

This review is from: 21st Century Complete Guide to Wind Energy and Wind Turbines, Wind Power, Wind Energy Resource Atlas, Meteorological Measurements, Technical Reports, ... Energy Lab NREL (Two CD-ROM Superset) (CD-ROM)
It's just a big PDF file, if you have the time to read through all of that your a better man than I.

Much of the info can be found on many renewable energy website.
