Wind turbine calculator
How much electricity does a wind turbine generate in a year, how many homes can it supply and how much CO₂ does it avoid? Pick a turbine class and the mean wind speed on site; the result updates instantly.
Good onshore sites in Türkiye typically see 7–8.5 m/s mean wind speed at 100 m.

Approximate estimate: Rayleigh wind distribution, a generic power curve (Cp 0.42, cut-in 3 m/s, cut-out 25 m/s), air density 1.225 kg/m³, wind shear exponent 0.14 and 12% total losses (wake, availability, electrical). Household use ≈ 2,500 kWh/year; grid emission factor 0.438 tCO₂/MWh (Turkish Ministry of Energy, 2022). Real project yields require site measurements and the manufacturer's power curve.
