Wind Energy Potential and Economic Feasibility in Mauritania: A Multi-Site Evaluation of Three Wind Turbines

Article scientifique 2025 Anglais

Résumé

This study evaluates the performance of various wind turbine models for different regions of Mauritania, focusing on offshore and onshore sites, considering wind speed data from four locations, Nouakchott, Nouadhibou, Aleg, and an offshore area near Nouakchott, over four years (2021-2024). Three turbine models XEMC Ltd XE93, Ecotecnia ECO80, and Siemens Gamesa SG132 were evaluated for their suitability to local wind conditions. Key parameters, such as wind speed, turbine efficiency, and energy production costs, were analyzed to determine the most suitable turbines and locations for wind farm development. The results show that coastal and offshore areas, particularly Nouadhibou and the Atlantic offshore zone, offer the highest wind potential with competitive energy production costs. The findings support the development of wind farms in these regions as a strategic investment to advance Mauritania's renewable energy goals.
