Abstract

Wind energy is an alternative energy source, in the category of renewable energy, which converts wind power into another useful form of energy. In this paper, the authors propose a study concerning the use of small turbines for electricity production, which are feasible at speeds around 3 m/s. It consists in a comparative analysis between experimental results obtained on site for a horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) and simulations obtained through the iHOGA program (Hybrid Optimization by Genetic Algorithms).
