Wind and Sea Analysis Funafuti Lagoon, Tuvalu

This study was undertaken in 1985 - 1986 to develop baseline wind, sea, current data for the lagoon area and in particular as they relate to the shore of the western side of Fongafale, a major cultural center in Tuvalu. Report prepared as a joint contribution by SPREP and UNDP for SOPAC.

Tuvalu Wind Resource Monitoring

  • Wind resource measurements have been carried out on Funafuti but only at the 30-metre level. An average wind speed of 5.79 m/s was recorded, and the consultant making the assessments recommended installation of small turbines in the 20–50 kW range as there is no crane on Tuvalu capable of installing larger turbines. This wind resource monitoring equipment was supported by the SOPAC, UNDP and Government of Denmark under the PIEPSAP Project.
