Weibull probability density function used to

determine the wind energy potential commonly. In this paper,

wind energy potential of Bilecik region is analyzed statistically by

using the Turkish State Meteorological Service’s hourly wind

speed data between 2010-2014 measured in Bilecik

meteorological station. It is used the two- parameter Weibull to

determine wind energy potential of the region. The parameters of

the Weibull distributions used for finding the estimation of

average speed, standard deviation, and power density is found by

using the Maximum likelihood method. All analysis is carried out

by Matrix Laboratory (MATLAB) programming language.

Monthly and yearly wind speeds are modeled by Weibull

distribution statistically. Accuracy of the modeling is evaluated in

terms of Root Mean Square Error (RMSE).
