Abstract: There is growing interest in the development of more sustainable electricity systems employing renewable, low-emission resources. In this context, the number of wind power generators installed in the world is increasing, and there are strong indicators that such growth should continue in the next decades. The intensity of wind power expansion depends on different factors related to technical, economic, environmental, governmental, and regulatory issues. This paper presents an overview on various issues related to wind energy conversion systems.

Keywords: wind energy conversion; environmental issues; economic issues; climate change; wind power generation; sustainable electricity. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
