Wind energy is an important climate resource. With the rapid increase of the scale of wind power in China, the development of wind energy resource evaluation system and wind power prediction system has become an important research content. At home and abroad to the numerical simulation of complex terrain wind field structure has a lot of research, as the computer ability enhancement, previously used for aerodynamic fine flow field calculation of fluid mechanics model increasingly applied in the field of meteorology, people began to study with mesoscale forecast mode and CFD mode combined with numerical simulation of complex terrain wind field. The coupled mode system of this paper adopts mesoscale meteorological mode, through the nested grid to the inner scale, and then through the coupled CFD mode Fluent software to obtain high resolution, horizontal wind speed distribution data of 30~100 m, 10 m below 150 m vertical height, to obtain the refined wind field letter. In September 2020, China put forward the goal of "carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutral by 2060". Through new energy power generation, afforestation, energy conservation and emission reduction, to achieve a relative "zero emission". By the end of 2020, China's installed photovoltaic power generation capacity was 253 GW, and the installed capacity of wind power reached 281 GW, accounting for about 24% of China's total installed capacity, and about 9.5%. It is expected that China's installed clean energy capacity will increase to 2570 GW, 6870 GW and 7680 GW in 2030,2050 and 2060, and more than 96% of the power supply will be clean energy by 2060. The 14th Five-Year Plan will further focus on the development and growth of the new energy industry.
