Currently the conventional wind power plants are limited to the use of the close to the ground winds. The hub height of the wind power plants and the hub height of the rotor diameter limit the maximum height of the usable wind. Conventional wind power plants can use winds up to a maximum of 200 m above the ground.
The average wind speed rises with the distance towards the ground. For the use of wind energy the wind speed is of essential importance. Thereby usable energy rises not only linear with the wind speed but increases with the third power, cube of the wind speed. In case of doubling the wind speed for example the energy contained in the wind is eight folded. By tripling the wind speed it increases 27-folded and so on.
Conclusion: The increased wind potential could be used with power plant buildings of a new technology generation which for now are planned with a building height of up to 1000m. The energy conversion units make use of the existing steady winds in approximately 300 m which ensure electric energy production that is continuous and also independent from lack of wind
