The study looked at how much wind energy can be harnessed in Makurdi, Nigeria. Wind speed data from 1961 to 2014 was used to figure out the best times for wind energy. The results showed that April had the most wind energy potential, while November had the least. Makurdi has high wind power density, meaning it can generate electricity from wind. The wind speeds in Makurdi are good enough for wind turbines to work well. Overall, Makurdi is a great place for generating wind power.
