Abstract :
Due to climate changes that have been observed in regions all over the world and which are believed to be caused by the use of conventional energy sources, we must draw our attention to renewable energy sources which are the most suitable in the future. This paper presents a study about designing and simulation of a small wind-hydro power plant which will be located in the Didactical and Agreement Base Marisel belonging to the Technical University of Cluj Napoca, Romania, and which will be used in didactical and research purposes. After execution, this pilot station will be used mainly for studding the possibilities of pumped hydro power plant to store the wind energy in the form of hydro-energy of water.
