Optimizing Wind Power Plant Locations: A GIS‐Based Approach With Interval Type‐2 Fuzzy Risk Deviation Performance Index

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This study develops an integrated GIS and multicriteria decision making (MCDM) approach supported by the Interval Type‐2 Fuzzy Risk Deviation Performance Index (IT2F‐RDPI) method to assess the wind energy potential in Diyarbakır Province. Fifteen criteria, including wind speed, slope, land use, elevation, soil structure, and proximity to ...

Application of particle image velocimetry to wind turbine wakes

open access: yes, 1993
Wind turbine performance is critically dependent on the geometry of the rotor wake. Acquisition of detailed wake data is of major importance for further development of wind turbine studies.

Global Renewable Energy Infrastructure Resilience Under Climate Risks

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Accelerating global climate risks increasingly threaten renewable energy infrastructure (REI). However, little evidence on heterogeneous impacts of climate risks on REI across countries, the moderating role of REI resilience, and post‐disaster recovery patterns is available, despite their critical importance for guiding resilient energy ...

Examining the relationship between wind turbine blade performance and tip vortex behaviour in the wake

open access: yes, 1997
This paper details the results of laboratory tests on a model wind turbine rotor at the University of Edinburgh and examines tip vortex behaviour which questions the assumptions of current rotor performance prediction codes.
