“…However, SWT are still considered less efficient than large wind turbines [8,10,11]; on the one hand this is due to the state of their technical development, on the other hand it is due to insufficient investigation of wind conditions at suitable installation locations, such as the built environment [12]. Still, growing research on the technical design of SWT [13][14][15], as well as on wind conditions in the urban environment [16], indicates potential for a more extensive application of SWT. They can often be installed without a building permit, produce low noise emissions, and have also a high degree of technical reliability [17][18][19][20].…”

In light of the global effort to limit the temperature rise, many cities have undertaken initiatives to become climate-neutral, making decentralized urban energy production more relevant. This paper addresses the potential of urban wind energy production with small wind turbines, using Berlin as an example. A complete framework from data selection to economic feasibility is constructed to enable the empirical assessment of wind energy for individual buildings and Berlin as a whole. Based on a detailed dataset of all buildings and hourly wind speed on a 1 km² grid, the results show that multiple turbines on suitable buildings can significantly contribute to households’ energy consumption but fall short of covering the full demand. For individual households, our economic evaluation strongly recommends the self-consumption of the produced electricity. The findings suggest that while the use of small wind turbines should be continuously encouraged, exploring other renewable resources or combination of wind and photovoltaic energy in the urban environment remains important.

“…Statistička metoda zasniva se na određivanju verovatnoće raspodele brzine vetra. Verovatnoća raspodele, prema Weibull-u [30,31], opisuje se funkcijom gustine verovatnoće (jednačina 1) i funkcijom kumulativne raspodele (jednačina 2):…”

Knowing the vector characteristics of the wind (direction, head, and intensity) is a prerequisite for determining the wind potential of a location. Based on the assessment of the wind potential, further analyses and research are carried out. Only when all the required conditions are met, the last two phases are reached: implementation (physical realization, i.e. installation) and exploitation (commissioning and use) of the wind generator. In this work, a statistical methodology was applied to examine the possibility of installing and using, primarily, vertical wind generators. Based on a one-year weather file (with a one-hour time step), characteristic diagrams (histogram of wind speed, wind rose, probability density function, cumulative distribution function, and height profile of wind speed) were formed for the assessment of the wind potential of the urban area of the city of Kragujevac. The proposed methodology can be used to assess the wind potential of any location, both urban and rural.
