The purpose of this project is a feasibility study of using urban wind turbines near populated areas. Urban wind turbines are rarely used nowadays and they are a new field to discover. This project involves researching different technical and design solutions, their advantages and disadvantages, all the problems which have appeared about noise, shadows and more, if there are any machines which are already running and any prototypes for the future. Some design methods are used to analyse the different possible options. These methods will help us to compare and find out the most suitable solutions. The results of this study will be used by “4 ENERGIA”, an Estonian Company which aims are to develop renewable energy industry and operate power production. This project is done in collaboration with the company and the research will provide them valuable information for using urban wind turbines in the future.
