2. Cost of electricity by source - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_of_electricity_by_source

   As of March 2021 for projects starting generating electricity in Turkey from renewable energy in Turkey in July feed-in-tariffs in lira per kWh are: wind and solar 0.32, hydro 0.4, geothermal 0.54, and various rates for different types of biomass: for all these there is also a bonus of 0.08 per kWh if local components are used. [126]

3. Pickens Plan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickens_Plan

   The cost of wind power generation has decreased by about 80% over the last 20 years because of technological advances and is now cost-competitive with other energy sources. Wind-generated electricity can be produced at 5 to 6 cents per kWh. [8] A yardstick used to determine locations with high potential wind energy production is referred to as ...

4. Offshore wind power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offshore_wind_power

   Offshore wind projects in the United States cost US$4,000 per kilowatt to build in 2023, compared to US\$1,363 per kilowatt for onshore wind farms. The cost of offshore wind has increased by 36% since 2019, while the cost of onshore wind has increased by only 5% over the same period.

5. Wind energy software - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_energy_software

   Software helps design wind turbines. There are several aero-elastic packages that are used in this design process. FOCUS6 aids in the design of wind turbines and turbine components such as rotor blades. It was developed by Knowledge Centre Wind turbine Materials and Constructions (WMC) [1] and Energy Research Centre of the Netherlands (ECN). [2]

6. Combined cycle power plant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_cycle_power_plant

   Plant size is important in the cost of the plant. The larger plant sizes benefit from economies of scale (lower initial cost per kilowatt) and improved efficiency. For large-scale power generation, a typical set would be a 270 MW primary gas turbine coupled to a 130 MW secondary steam turbine, giving a total output of 400 MW.

7. Life-cycle greenhouse gas emissions of energy sources

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life-cycle_greenhouse_gas...

   The findings are presented in units of global warming potential per unit of electrical energy generated by that source. The scale uses the global warming potential unit, the carbon dioxide equivalent (CO 2 e), and the unit of electrical energy, the kilowatt hour (kWh). The goal of such assessments is to cover the full life of the source, from ...

8. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

   Usually, the total amount of energy harvested amounts to more than the cost of the turbines. [117] Wind turbines provide a clean energy source, [118] use little water, [2] emitting no greenhouse gases and no waste products during operation. Over 1,400 tonnes (1,500 short tons) of carbon dioxide per year can be eliminated by using a one-megawatt ...

9. Wind farm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_farm

   The environmental impact of electricity generation from wind power is minor when compared to that of fossil fuel power. [117] Wind turbines have some of the lowest global warming potential per unit of electricity generated: far less greenhouse gas is emitted than for the average unit of electricity, so wind power helps limit climate change.
