Bonifacio is called « fille du vent » - « daughter of the wind »
Bonifacio is called « fille du vent » - « daughter of the wind »
Strong wind all the year long
� More than 150 days per year, all seasons
High speed wind
�More than 20 days par year with 100 km/h wind
�Every year storms with winds up to 120 km/h until 200 km/h
Location « in the wind »
�The citadel is face to the strongest wind from the sea
Around 2 millions tourists visit Bonifacio each yea r.
The project : museum, new hôtel, baby nursery, hous ing and activities
Wind is a stake of urban comfort and city branding.

Chicago (USA) � called « Windy City » . The wind is not very strong but is very cold in winter from the lake Michigan and threew the regular streets.
Wellington (NZ)� Supposed to be the windiest city in the world, 2/3 days up to 4 Beaufort all the year long.
Punta Arenas (Chile) � Windiest than Wellington , and moreover is located « sous le vent »
Tarifa (Spain) � Close to Gibraltar, supposed to be the windiest in Europe, but less than Bonifacio.
Essaouira (Marocco) � supposed to be the windiest in North Africa, but less than Bonifacio.
Karpathos (Greece) � As windiest as Punta Arenas 6 months in the year
Most windy cities in the world…
Probably the windiest city in Europe and Mediterranea n RegionSources : www.windfinder.com www.infoclimat.fr

An integrated solution to control wind effects
With skills from traditionnal building, farming and wind turbine industry :
� Oriented buildings back to the wind, fields protection, wind turbine location

Wind study process
A study process combining two solutions :
� Computationnal Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modelization, with URBAWIND
� Real turbine test on physical models, with CSTB Laboratory (Nantes, France)
An iterative process:
� From the test with the 2013 project, to the new URBALTERRE project
� With many CFD tests during the design, and two test with the turbine
