Abstract

Kirsehir is in a location with natural richness, especially in terms of sun and wind. The renewable energy facilities currently invested and operating throughout Kirsehir are proof of this. In this study; The potential of wind energy, one of the renewable energy sources, in Kırşehir Province was examined and Geycek Wind Power Plant, the only active wind power plant in Kirsehir Province, was evaluated. The existing Geycek Wind Energy Power Plant continues to operate as a impressive work for the region with its installed power of 168 MWe. There is going to be a Wind Power Plant region with a total installed power of 528 MW, along with other investments to be made to use the full potential.
