WIND ENERGY POTENTIAL OF KIRŞEHİR AND POWER ANALYSIS OF WIND ENERGY PLANTS INSTALLED IN CENTRAL ANATOLIA REGION

Abstract

Turkey's rich and diverse renewable energy potential has been rapidly utilized in recent years. Among these resources, wind energy plays a critical role in electricity generation, steadily increasing its share in installed capacity. As an environmentally friendly energy source, wind energy demonstrates high production capacity, particularly in rural areas. This study examines the wind potential and installed power plant capacities of provinces in the Central Anatolia Region, considering parameters such as population and development levels. Specifically, the Kırşehir region was analyzed, and the wind energy production capacity for 2024–2028 was estimated using an Artificial Neural Network (ANN)-based model. The analysis predicted a slight decrease of approximately 1% in wind potential for 2024, followed by an annual increase of 1% from 2025 to 2028. Compared to 2023, energy production in 2026 is projected to rise by 3.5%, with further increases anticipated in 2027 and 2028. This study provides a detailed evaluation of the wind energy potential in the Central Anatolia Region and offers energy production forecasts for the Kırşehir wind farm during 2024–2028 using an ANN-based predictive model. As a result, the study comprehensively analyzes the current capacity, potential energy production, and annual variations in the region.
