The Global Wind Atlas (GWA), developed by the World Bank Group and DTU Energy, is designed to assist policymakers, planners, and investors in identifying high-wind regions for wind
View an interactive map or download geospatial data on land-based and offshore wind supply curves.
Wind energy generation by region Measured in terawatt-hours. Includes both onshore and offshore wind sources.
This type of map displays the estimated wind power density, which is the average annual power available per square meter of the area swept by a turbine''s blades.
This trio of wind maps based on data from the Global Wind Atlas highlight wind speed, power density, and capacity factors for wind power generation.
The Global Wind Atlas is a free, web-based application developed to help policymakers, planners, and investors identify high-wind areas for wind power generation virtually anywhere in the world, and then
New high-resolution, state-of-the-art maps of wind energy potential are now available for the Northwest. Resource estimates are easily accessible to the public through an interactive Geographic Information
There you can find out more about the layers and see how we used them to assess wind energy resources for policy and planning, including one example of a wind farm suitability analysis using the
Scelto Energy Africa is a leading energy storage equipment manufacturer and integrator based in South Africa, serving the African market. We specialize in lithium-ion batteries for residential, commercial and industrial use, system-level battery management systems (BMS) for optimal performance and safety, energy conversion systems (PCS) for efficient power flow, energy storage battery system cabinets with integrated monitoring, communication cabinets for telecom and data centres, commercial & industrial energy storage cabinets for factories and warehouses, integrated PV-storage systems for seamless solar plus storage operation, distributed energy resources for microgrids and off-grid applications, and deep discharge battery technology for extended cycling. As a full-service provider, we also offer containerised BESS, modular battery racks, backup emergency power, and zero‑carbon microgrids. Our advanced lithium‑ion and sodium‑ion solutions ensure safety, scalability, and high performance for residential, commercial, industrial, and utility projects across Africa.
Our modular energy storage portfolio ranges from compact lithium-ion batteries to 20ft/40ft mobile containers and outdoor all-in-one storage cabinets with IP54 protection. We are a leading energy storage equipment manufacturer, offering communication cabinets for 5G/telecom, server racks for data centers, and IP54 rated enclosures for harsh environments. Our stackable design allows flexible capacity expansion, while our grid-forming technology ensures stable off‑grid operation. Whether for off‑grid power systems, backup emergency power, integrated PV-storage or large zero‑carbon parks, our products feature advanced thermal management, deep discharge cycling, and compliance with African and international standards. We also provide professional energy storage system installation and after‑sales support across Africa.
