Abstract

The energy demands in combination to the environmental impacts of conventional ways of energy production, has raised the importance and the benefits of the renewable energy technologies. This paper aims to compare two commercial wind turbines with a theoretical design, in terms of energy production and financial aspects. The study includes the site assessment of the location Marmari in south Evia, the calculation of the basic characteristics of the theoretical rotor and finally the comparison of the theoretical design with two wind turbines regarding the energy production and the financial aspects [1].
