The purpose of this paper is to contribute the database to users of wind power in Taiwan. The study analyzes 12 stations in Taiwan. The data were collected during the period 2001-2010. The Weibull distribution method was used to analyze wind characteristics and wind energy potential in the different site and height as well. The results show that the wind speed at the height 100 m and roughness length 0.1 m in Taiwan between 1.7 m/s and 4.3 m/s, and the power density from 5 W/m2 to 75 W/m2. Taipei is the windy place, while Taichung is the less. The direction of the wind most commonly comes from north-east. The wind energy varies depend on season, strong wind in spring and winter, while weak wind in autumn and summer. The results obtained contribute to a global vision of the wind energy potential and the windy areas in Taiwan.
