Abstract
This research aims at promoting renewable energy investment opportunities in Malaysia. Though there are positive attempts on Solar PV installations, due to its capital intensiveness, the progress is slow and lacks behind the annual targets. Hence, the government is planning to diversity electricity generations in other forms of renewable energy resources. However, the average wind velocity in Malaysia is 2 m/s, which is very low for energy production by commercial wind turbines. To give confidence to investors, this research work explores the wind profiles at several places in Malaysia and predicts the energy production of a few commercially available wind turbines.
