Computer based modeling and simulation for wind energy systems

Present energy problems involve issues of technology selection, placement, variation of energy services demand by location and time-of-use and new sourcing options especially renewable energy. Beside these issues, there are also, major challenges for current energy production where the cost and environmental impacts are some of the important aspects which determine the producers to consider alternative solutions. This paper describes an informational system for designing energy systems based on renewable energy (wind energy) in isolated areas. The proposed method, which refers to model, simulation and configuration of the energy system, is based on CAD (Computer Aided Design) and DDS (Decision Support System) techniques.
