Abstract
The article is devoted to the problems of wind energy in the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic. Significant preparatory work is required to design a wind farm. The site is selected in a mountainous area, since the readings of any metrological station located in the gorge will be valid only for the area where it is installed. In the region, local wind flows have not been studied for the use of their energy for the needs of the national economy. To assess the wind energy resource in one of the side gorges in the Baksan river valley, UMEKCommunal Service LLC installed a certified automatic temporary metrological station Bylym, the results of which are given in this article. For 18 months, at hourly intervals, in particular, atmospheric pressure, temperature and relative air humidity, maximum and average wind speed, wind direction, as well as wind speed in gusts were measured. The readings of the instruments were processed and presented in the form of tables - the direction of the wind in points and the duration of the wind, presented in points on the Beaufort scale. The presence of access roads suitable for transporting wind turbine blades and the proximity of a high-voltage line will reduce the cost of delivery and connection to the power grid. It is proved that the site, located on the outskirts of the rural settlement Bylym, is promising.
