In the current research, wind energy potential at Kerman synoptic stations which contain wind data with 20 years statistic period and beyond, including Kerman synoptic station (30°.15ʹN, 56°.58ʹE, 1753.8 M high), 1951-2011; Kahnooj (27.58ʹN, 57°.42ʹE, 469.7 M high), 1989-2011; Bam (29°.06ʹN, 58°.21ʹE, 1066.9 M high), 1956-2011; Baft (29°.14ʹN, 56°.35ʹE, 2280 M high), 1986-2011; Anar (30.53ʹN, 55°.15ʹE, 1408.8 M high), 1986-2011; Shahrbabak (30°.06ʹN, 55°.08ʹE, 1834.1 M high), 1987-2011; Sirjan (29°.28ʹN, 55°.41ʹE, 1739.4 M high), 1985-2011; Miandeh- Jiroft (28°.35ʹN, 57°.48ʹE, 601 M high), 1989-2011 and Rafsanjan (30°.25ʹN, 55.54ʹE, 1580.9 M high), 1992-2011 has been studied. Wind data were obtained from the recorded data at Tehran meteorology organization. This data was recorded at an interval of 3 h at 10 m height above the ground level. Using weibull distribution fun..
