Abstract

One of the biggest natural energy sources in renewable energy is undoubtedly wind energy. Huge-sized wind turbine towers are used for wind energy. In some cases, tribune towers of 10 meters can be used to meet smaller needs. These towers can be composed of structures such as steel, hybrid and reinforced concrete. Within the scope of this study, three different types of wind turbine towers was selected using the Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (BAHS) method which is one of the multi-criteria decision making methods. In addition to the analysis of installation and maintenance costs, criteria such as recycling rates and economic life are taken into account in this study. According to these criteria, different most suitable wind turbine was analyzed with BAHS method and the most suitable tower type was selected. As a result of the study, the hybrid type tower came to the fore in terms of recycling, maintenance, operation and installation convenience, as well as displacement and stress values.
