Optimization of the Wind Turbines Location in Kaberten Wind Farm in Algeria

AbstractThis paper consists in the study of a wind farm intended for the production of the electrical energy in the southwest of Algeria exactly in Adrar. The region of Adrar possesses a big wind potential which need to be exploited and optimized. Our study consists in optimizing the location of wind turbines in the park of Kaberten and in reducing the losses due to the effect of trail by using the GH WindFarmer and WAsP software. Ten turbines (10 x 1 MW) were used on the GH WindFarmer, to determine the best positions of wind generators. The results of simulations are presented and discussed
