Abstract

This research examines effect of different wind turbine classes in electricity production of wind farms. Wind classes determine which turbine is suitable for normal wind conditions of a particular site. Turbines having higher wind classes have larger blades and produce more energy in low and medium winds, but they are more sensitive in high wind gusts.
