Abstract
In the present study, the case study of micro-siting for the campus of the Institute of Nuclear Energy Research (INER) is conducted. Results from the effect of weather data suggest that for the wind turbine system higher than 20 m, the effect of nearby building and wake on electricity production would be less important. The effect of different weather data on the generated annual electricity production (AEP) is consistent for the wind turbine higher than 20 m. The difference between the calculated and real AEP of INER-150 kW wind turbine is only 1.1%, which is much better than some previous studies. The good agreement is mainly due to the higher height of the INER-150 kW (50 m), more stable coming wind and smaller impact of building on the performance of power production. Considering the proactivity on the installation for the site in INER campus, the finalized decision on the selection of wind turbine is 1 kW system. The power generation-related data are collected and processed for the fine tuning of model parameters in the future.

With limited natural resources, about 99% of the required energy of Taiwan is imported, putting uncertainties on the economy and energy safety
Since the wind farm evaluated for a case of inland of Taiwan area has not yet been conducted with high spatial precision and local weather data, the purpose of the present study is to conduct a case study of micro-siting for the campus of the Institute of Nuclear Energy Research (INER)
Summary
About 99% of the required energy of Taiwan is imported, putting uncertainties on the economy and energy safety. The wind energy and photovoltaic (PV) are the most practical techniques. We are actively developing the offshore wind farm, with the goal of 5.7 GW in 2025. Locations suitable for the large and onshore wind turbine have almost been installed. Large onshore wind turbines are installed along the coastal line of western Taiwan. Further installation should shift to the inland and urban region
