Objective(s): To measure the wind energy potential at the Inuvik High Point for two years.
Project Description: The objective of this wind monitoring proposal is to measure the wind energy potential at the Inuvik High Point (approximately 6 km northeast of the Inuvik airport) for two years. This is part of an alternative energy study for the Inuvik area. Wind data will be collected using instruments on a wind tower that will be installed at the site. Two full years of wind measurements and an economic analysis will be necessary to confirm the wind energy potential at the Inuvik High Point site. The study was started in 2014, but the tower collapsed before data collection was completed. 1) Installation of wind tower and wind monitoring equipment at the proposed monitoring site. The new tower will be installed at the exact same site as the previous tower (Inuvik High Point site). Equipment will be transported from Inuvik to the high point site by helicopter. The tower installation will consist of driving anchors into the ground, ... Show more
