Kano state in Nigeria suffers from conventional energy shortage which attributed to the geographical nature of the region. Therefore, exploring the other alternative sources of energy such as wind energy with a view to evaluating their potentials for efficient energy utilization could help alleviate the power problems the region is facing. A new concept of energy efficiency index (EEI) is introduced to help and guide policy makers in making decision on both the energy and climate change issues. The wind is highly variable both geographically and temporally in Kano, North-Western Region of Nigeria. The study analyses the wind speeds data obtained from Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NIMET) Abuja for 20years (2000-2020) using Weibull distribution function.
