| Abstract [eng] |
This research investigates the potential of wind energy in expansive urban environments, with a focus on the impacts of climate change. The research introduces an innovative method for calculating wind energy variations within such environments, providing a novel approach to understanding and predicting wind behavior in urban areas. The findings demonstrate that extensive urban development significantly reduces wind energy potential due to increased surface roughness and obstructive structures. Additionally, the study reveals that climate change exacerbates these negative effects, further diminishing wind energy resources. This comprehensive analysis is pivotal for the development of sustainable energy solutions. A new wind power generation model has been developed from this research, designed for use in environmental impact assessments and the strategic siting of new wind farms. The model effectively quantifies potential energy losses in turbine environments, considering both anthropogenic climate change and urban expansion. This advancement provides a critical tool for policymakers and urban planners aiming to optimize wind energy utilization and mitigate the environmental impacts of urbanization and climate change. |
