Efficiency of wind turbines and sustainable development in Kitka Park – Case study
This paper analyzes the efficiency of generators with a focus on promoting wind turbine components and practical investment strategies.The turbines utilized in Kitka Park represent the latest technology, featuring tower heights of 110 meters.The average annual wind speed under optimal conditions ranges from 6.4 to 7.5 m/s.A key achievement of this project is the reduction of 75.000 tons of CO 2 emissions, primarily through decreased reliance on fossil fuel combustion.The primary objective of this study is to enhance wind turbine performance by improving the power factor of installed generators, as assessed through measured and simulated parameters.The case study demonstrates a 3% increase in turbine generating performance at a height of 120 meters.The generating capacity of the existing turbines is 3.6 MW; with an increase to 4 MW, efficiency per turbine has improved by 9%.The enhancement in generating power yield is identified as a critical factor influencing the operational performance and functional interaction of wind turbines.
