COMPARISON OF THE EFFICIENCY OF WIND POWER PLANTS FROM RENEWABLE ENERGY TYPES TO REDUCE ATMOSPHERE POLLUTION IN MARMARA REGION

Abstract

Our need for energy is increasing every day with the advancement of technology. Energy plays a major role in the social and economic sphere of life. The need for RES is increasing day by day although the need for energy is produced from fossil fuels in many countries. In addition to this, while the harmful gases emitted to the environment as a result of using fossil fuel for energy production harm the nature, this is not possible in renewable wind energy. Renewable wind energy is an endless source of energy obtained from natural processes. Therefore, wind power stations get attention of many countries. The wind industry is the world's fastest-growing energy source. However, the main problem of the renewable wind energy sector is that the desired wind intensity cannot be sustained at the same rate and the installation costs are high. Many countries are aware of the importance of wind energy and make certain investments in renewable wind energy in the long term. Wind turbines can be in different shapes according to their location and intended use. One of the most important reasons for their different designs is the wind types in their geographies. In this study, wind power plants in five different regions in Marmara region were discussed. These plants were compared among themselves, the results were evaluated and the efficiency of the plants compared.
