Abstract

These days, the energy sector is a controversial one from the point of view of price variation and security. We hear more and more that the European continent is heading towards an unprecedented energy crisis and that many countries are reorienting towards conventional energy sources to combat the effects of rising prices and availability. However, we consider that the energy sector must remain oriented toward renewable sources. Even if the implementation of green technologies is expensive, the bill we will receive in the next decade for the ecological effects will be lower. In this paper, the latest technologies in the field were compared for a reduced geographical area. The data show that the conversion of electrical energy from wind sources is comparable in the studied area with other areas in Europe and the world.
