Abstract
During the last decades, renewable energy production has significantly increased in an effort to produce clean energy that will not affect the environment. Governments around the world are focusing on reducing greenhouse gas emissions by increasing the utilization of renewable energy sources in the power chain. Wind farms and wind generators are the main renewable technology that are used worldwide. The main scope of wind farm designers is the achievement of the maximum possible power, restraining the installation cost that is related to the use of a specific number of wind turbines for specific power production, and considering the area of land to be occupied. A harmony search method is presented in this paper for the determination of the optimum number of wind turbines in a wind farm and the total electric power produced. The method is applied for comparison purposes on data from previously published methodologies proving its accuracy and effectiveness. The harmony research method can be used in the studies of wind farm designers aiming to reduce installation costs.
