Abstract: The results of optimization studies made on a 2KW, 3 bladed propellor type stand - alone windmill integrated with a diesel generator and battery bank with inverter are presented in this paper. The studies were conducted at Trivandrum and Nagercoil (South India) adjoining Arabian sea. Based on least-cost energy analysis, the design of a 27MW wind farm is also optimised and presented.
