Assessment of Electric Energy Generation using Wind Energy in Turkey

Abstract

Renewable energy is an abundant and environmentally friendly local resource. The use, future, and development of wind energy, which is one of today's renewable energy resources, is of great importance. In this study, electrical energy production from wind energy has been examined in Turkey. The electrical energy production (GWh) data set belonging to the years 2010-2019 was used. Trend analysis of electrical energy generation (using three different models) has been evaluated using these data. These models are the linear, s-curve, and quadratic trend models. Then, the model with the minor result in MAPE, MAD, and MSD values was chosen. Finally, it was resolute that the most suitable model for electrical energy production is the quadratic trend model.
