Abstract
The problem of choosing the optimal wind turbine for a specific site is of special importance in the design
process of wind farm. Manifestly, the selection of the optimal wind turbine should depend on a certain criteria.
In this paper, optimal wind turbine selection is studied in terms of the capacity factor of wind turbine generator
and the Expected Energy not Supplied which is one of the most commonly used reliability indices for power
systems. The latter one considers the load profile of the system and is suitable to compare different wind
farm compositions while the former one completely ignores the load profile of the system. This paper presents
general theoretical results that are helpful to compare performance of wind turbines and wind farms without
data collection and further numerical assessment. In particular, the conditions on wind turbine characteristics
and availability values of wind turbines are determined to compare wind turbines and wind farms in terms of
the capacity factor and Expected Energy not Supplied.
