A Combined Renewable Energy System Demonstration for Providing the Energy Need at Esentepe (Windhill) Campus in Sakarya University

Energy need of the world is directly increasing withpopulation and technology. Limited traditional sources like fossil fuel are notsustainable and usage of these sources causes harmful conditions forenvironment. The continuous and increasing energy usage must be provided fromthe continuous, natural and renewable energy sources instead of traditionalsources. Wind and solar energyapplications are important types of renewable energy class with features likebeing clean and environmentally friendly. Because of these remarkable features,these renewable energy sources are preferred and used all over the world. InTurkey, an outstanding increase has taken place in installed power during last10 years. In this study, the electricity requirement of a building on thecampus of Sakarya University is aimed to be compensated with a combinedsolar/wind energy system. First, the amount of energy consumption of selectedbuilding in a year was evaluated. The required parameters for wind energy likewind speed were provided from the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resourcespage. And, solar energy parameters were taken from Institute for Energy and Transport(IET) established by European Commission. The calculations were made by usingthese parameters and return of the investment was determined.
