Location Selection forWind Turbines in Balıkesir, NW Turkey, Using GIS

Abstract

In comparison to
traditional production of energy by using fossil fuels, the demand for
renewable energy is increasing constantly due to the negative effects of fossil
fuels on the environment, increased public awareness and the fact that fossil
resources will be exhausted someday. As a renewable energy source, wind energy
is an economically feasible, environmentally clean, popular and reliable way of
energy production. This study determined twelve geographical factors, the
effects and weights of these factors were determined by considering the
relevant literature and field conditions, and various analyses were conducted
on these factors with the help of geographical information systems (GIS). As a
result of the analyses, the most suitable establishment locations for wind
energy stations were determined for the province of Balıkesir. The resulting
map was divided into four classes based on their suitability (somehow suitable,
moderately suitable, suitable and highly suitable). The classes were
distributed as highly suitable by 12%, suitable by 29%, moderately suitable by
36% and somehow suitable by 23%.
