Abstract
A potential and economic analysis of a 10 MW wind farm at Adrar in the southern region of Algeria is realized for various WT types. Adrar has a good wind potential: and the most adapted wind turbine is the Vestas V90/2MW with a annual energy output equal to 40902 MWh. According to the studied machine, the capacity factor varies from 36% for Nordex N80/2500 and 47% for Vestas V90/2MW with respectively a cost per kWh of electricity generated of 0.0525 $/kWh and 0.0408$/kWh. According to our results, the wind resource appears to be suitable for power production in the site of Adrar, which makes it a viable substitute to diesel oil for electricity generation.
