Abstract

Wind energy is a famous green energy after solar energy realized. The highest potential green energy especially wind energy is depending from local characteristic study. However, survey and observation of local characteristic study it's very expensive to obtain wind potential energy. Thus, in this study aimed to estimate wind potential energy using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) over Krui, West Lampung, Sumatera, Indonesia. Here, the observation data such as wind speed, wind direction, and elevation taken from local survey while the wind potential energy taken from NASA LaRC POWER project. Here, all the data was processed using Levenberg Marquardt algorithm and ANN back propagation to estimate wind energy potential for Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) architecture with Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Variance Accounted For (VAF) wind energy potential energy value less than 0.04% and 95%, respectively. Based on the result, we have recommedation model to estimate wind energy potential for wind energy development over Krui, West Lampung in near future. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
