    <subfield code="a">&lt;p&gt;Ethiopia has been relied much on hydroelectric plants for of its power demand. But Hydro&lt;br&gt;
power is exposed to the effects of climatic change. Problem of water level fluctuation is&lt;br&gt;
increasing continuously in most of the hydropower dams resulting from the climate&lt;br&gt;
change. As the demand for safe and clean electricity increases due to industrial&lt;br&gt;
development and population growth in the country, expanding wind energy industry is&lt;br&gt;
greatly helpful to Ethiopia to meet its growing massive energy demand and to promote&lt;br&gt;
sustainable development. The country has enormous potential to generate electricity from&lt;br&gt;
wind.&lt;br&gt;
This study investigates the wind energy resource potential for Mosobo-Harena using&lt;br&gt;
different statistical methods and software. MS-Excel and MATLAB programs were used&lt;br&gt;
to generate time-series graphs of wind speed and direction , frequency distributions of&lt;br&gt;
wind speeds (wind speed histogram) and a wind rose for 12 continuous months from&lt;br&gt;
January 1/2007 to December 31/ 2007. And WAsP (The Wind Atlas Analysis and&lt;br&gt;
Application Program) was used for predicting wind resources, wind atlas generation,&lt;br&gt;
develop site wind resource map, identify wind potential sites, sitting of wind turbines and&lt;br&gt;
estimating farm annual energy production (AEP). The analysis was conducted based on&lt;br&gt;
one year 10 minutes interval wind speed collected data from mast at Mosobo-Harena at&lt;br&gt;
heights of 10m and 40m above ground level. This site has an average wind speed of 5.47&lt;br&gt;
m/s and annual wind power density is 161w/m2 at mast height of 10m&lt;/p&gt;</subfield>
