The development and commercialization of durable and economically viable Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS) is the primary goal of the Federal Wind Energy Program (FWEP). Within this program, the Wind Characteristics Program Element (WCPE) has been established to identify, develop and disseminate information on related wind characteristics. The WCPE is a service for designers, manufacturers, users of WECS, other program elements within the FWEP, and Department of Energy (DOE) staff. Research funded by the WCPE must be directly related to the needs of one of these groups.
