Abstract
This paper reports briefly the variability of the wind power on the we stern coast of Anatolia, considering the Weibull distribution. The hig hest value of mean monthly wind power of 562 W m(-2) is observed in Fe bruary at 10 m. We found that Bozcaada, Gokceada, Bodrum, Canakkale ar id Ayvalik present higher energy potential than the other locations.
