Investigation and Evaluation of wind power estimation at the Campus area of Kahramanmaraş Sutcu İmam University

Abstract

This paper briefly introduces a study of the determination of possible wind power potential in Kahramanmaraş, For this purpose, a wind observation mast and its measurement equipment was established at the main campus of kahramanmaraş Sutcu İmam University. Wind meteorological data were collected and recorded between the dates of October 05, 2010 and April 24, 2012. The recorded data were analyzed and processed using the WAsP program. The results of these analyses are used to estimate the wind power potential in the region and select the best fitted wind turbines to the site characteristics. Suitable sites were selected according to the created wind power and energy maps.
