The aim of this work is to evaluate the wind energy potential of two sites in the Ibiapaba Mountain situated in the Ceará State, Brazil. Techniques and parameters used for the assessment of wind energy in those sites are described and statistical analysis of wind speed and direction is performed in data collected of two meteorological stations. It was observed that the Ibiapaba Mountain presents significant wind energy potential and adequate to satisfy the demand for electricity at the region and consequently may be suitable to complement the energy matrix of the Ceará State.
