The National Energy General Plan policy is one of the government's focuses on controlling the use of renewable energy in line with the development of the need for energy use for the community, especially in the electricity sector. Electrical energy is energy that is very important for human needs, where every human being is very dependent on electricity for their daily needs. Currently, there is a crisis of fossil resources, so renewable energy can be developed. One renewable energy that is easy to develop is a wind turbine by utilizing the energy of the wind that blows. Indonesia has started to pay attention to increasing the efficiency of electricity generation, especially wind power. The type of turbine planned is the Darrieus type vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) using a modified NACA Airfoil 2414 geometry with variations in wind speed. At a speed of 7,61 m/s from the test results obtained the power produced by the turbine is 20,78 watts with a voltage of 11,61 Volts and an electric current of 1,79 Amperes and at 354 rpm generator rotation. from the results obtained, the higher the wind speed, the higher the rotation produced by the turbine.

Technological developments on energy savings are caused by increasing demand for energy use from year to year. This is done to avoid an energy crisis. The energy crisis is a problem that is being faced because of the depletion of fossil energy. To restore fossil energy can require natural processes in a long time. With the limited availability of fossil energy, it is very necessary to develop alternative energy sources that are friendly to the environment, one of which is wind energy. Indonesia is an archipelago, so the wind speed in Indonesia is relatively low, then in this study can be overcome using a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). This research was conducted to find out power of Coefficient, type speed ratio in the variation of wind speed in the turbine. This study uses a wind power design with a vertical axis. Blades are used from modified NACA 0018 airfoil. Research result taken at the time of testing is with wind speeds ranging from 3 m / s to 6,1 m/s which measures the capacity of electric power produced by turbines with a load of 10 watts. The results of this study are the minimum actual power of the turbine 2.881 Watt with TSR 0.4 and Cp 0.18 at wind speed 3 m/s, and the maximum power obtained at a speed of 6,1m/s that is equal to 14.62 Watt with a TSR of 0.25 and Cp of 0.29.
