Abstract
This chapter presents a guide for researchers to analyze and examine case studies related to wind energy systems. The five investigated case studies addressed several assessments such as power, materials, and cost. The effects of several parameters on the generated power have been studied, including wind speed, elevation, power coefficient, and rotor diameter. It was noticed that the annual energy produced from a wind turbine depends significantly on the cut-in, cut-out, and rated wind speeds. One of the most crucial studies that is also considered in this chapter is the durability of the material, which must be tested before the construction and installation. The economic feasibility of investment was also investigated, which depends mainly on the payback period and net present value that is calculated after estimating the investment horizon of the wind energy system.
