Feasibility Study on Economic Operation on Wind Farms in the Electric Power System of the Republic of Croatia

In this work are analyzed island and coastal locations on the Adriatic Sea as possible sites of wind farms. The analysis is based on the expert system developed by the authors of literature [1]. The macrolocation selection is performed by the multicriterial decision-making method and in compliance with the current world approach to their wind potential and some other criteria. The choice of wind turbine generator (WTG) unit is based on the fundamental critera: operational efficiency on the given location, price per installed kW, and price of generated electricity. The results obtained in this study show that the contribution in electricity yield from the selected wind power plants could amount to 4.33% of the electricity generated by the Croatian power plants in the year 1990. The calculation of electricity costs are based on the quantity of electricity obtained by simulating the operation of the best WTG units selected from the ES database and including other influential factors. In the choice of macrolocations and WTG units the fuzzy method is implemented as part of the ES. We use the GIS data by S. Pavasović and T. Radelja in this work. The wind power curves are contributed by D. Poje for this study.
