Illinois High Resolution Wind Resource
Annual average wind resource potential of Illinois at a 50 meter height.
This data set was produced and validated by NREL using their WRAM model. This shapefile was generated from a raster dataset with a 1000 m resolution, in a Transverse Mercator projection with the following parameters:
