Abstract :
There´s a brief description of the Uruguayan wind power installed by 2012, and an analysis of its energetic behavior for the last year. Chronological comparative capacity factor series, and relative wind energy production are shown and analyzed. Two wind farms are selected, and for these, there´s an analysis of the correlation of two series: daily energy and hourly power. Finally, by calculating the principal patterns, data is filtered to identify stronger correlations. All the analysis is made based on actual data from the system operator.
