Determining Balıkesir’s Energy Potential Using a Regression Analysis Computer Program

الملخص EN

Solar power and wind energy are used concurrently during specific periods, while at other times only the more efficient is used, and hybrid systems make this possible.

When establishing a hybrid system, the extent to which these two energy sources support each other needs to be taken into account.

This paper is a study of the effects of wind speed, insolation levels, and the meteorological parameters of temperature and humidity on the energy potential in Balıkesir, in the Marmara region of Turkey.

The relationship between the parameters was studied using a multiple linear regression method.

Using a designed-for-purpose computer program, two different regression equations were derived, with wind speed being the dependent variable in the first and insolation levels in the second.

The regression equations yielded accurate results.

The computer program allowed for the rapid calculation of different acceptance rates.

The results of the statistical analysis proved the reliability of the equations.

An estimate of identified meteorological parameters and unknown parameters could be produced with a specified precision by using the regression analysis method.

The regression equations also worked for the evaluation of energy potential.
