Calculation of kinetic energy of the wind upon our parcel
The formula for full wind kinetic power:
W=0.5*Ro*A*(V**3),
where:
W is full kinetic power of wind flow [Watt]
Ro is air density (1.225 kilograms per cubic metre)
A is area [square metre]
V is wind speed on the area A [metre per second]

Maximal available area upon parcel is 46 metres length x 8 metres height (line east-west), minimal area is 12 metres length x 8 metres height (line south-north) - 96 sqm. For minimal air area, wind power is:
wind speed m/s | kinetic wind power KWatt |
| 3 | 1.59 |
| 4 | 3.76 |
| 5 | 7.35 |
| 6 | 12.70 |
| 7 | 20.17 |
| 8 | 30.11 |
| 9 | 42.87 |
| 10 | 58.80 |
| 11 | 78.26 |
| 12 | 101.61 |
| 13 | 129.18 |
| 14 | 161.35 |
| 15 | 198.45 |
| 16 | 240.84 |
| 17 | 288.88 |
| 18 | 342.92 |
| 19 | 403.31 |
| 20 | 470.40 |
Average wind speed for the parcel is (approximately) 4 metre per second; average wind power is 3.76 kilowatts.
Energy per year is 33000 kilowatt-hours (KWh).
Ground head energy under our parcel
(Geothermal energy)
Ground heat capacity: 0.8 KJ/(Kg*K)
Ground mass for 10 m depth: 12000 tonnes
Temperature at the depth of ten metres: 10 degrees C
If we will cool the ground to 0 degree C or will heat it to 20 degrees C, geothermal energy will be 96000 Mega Joules.
For half a year (opposite phase of ground-air temperature) energy per day is:
527 MJ per day or
22 MJ per hour or
heat power 6.1 KW
Air heat energy under the parcel
Heat capacity of air: 1 KJ/(Kg*K)
Density of air is about 1.2 kg/m3>
Air mass upon the parcel for altitude 10 m: 8160 kg
Heat energy (heating/cooling air mass to 10 degrees C): 81.6 MJ
For wind 4 metre per second: every 6.5 seconds - "new air mass" - heat power is 12 MegaWatts.
Solar power
Parcel area is 680 sqm.
Year average solar power (clear sky, during day) is approximately 800 Watts/m2 (for land area). If during 1/3 of days are clouds or fog (days without direct sunlight): solar energy (year average and day average) is 180 KWatt.
