AB - Our need for energy is increasing every day with the advancement of  technology. Energy plays a major role in the social and economic sphere of  life. The need for RES is increasing day by day although the need for energy  is produced from fossil fuels in many countries. In addition to this, while  the harmful gases emitted to the environment as a result of using fossil  fuel for energy production harm the nature, this is not possible in  renewable wind energy. Renewable wind energy is an endless source of energy  obtained from natural processes. Therefore, wind power stations get  attention of many countries. The wind industry is the world's  fastest-growing energy source. However, the main problem of the renewable  wind energy sector is that the desired wind intensity cannot be sustained at  the same rate and the installation costs are high. Many countries are aware  of the importance of wind energy and make certain investments in renewable  wind energy in the long term. Wind turbines can be in different shapes  according to their location and intended use. One of the most important  reasons for their different designs is the wind types in their geographies.  In this study, wind power plants in five different regions in Marmara region  were discussed. These plants were com-pared among themselves, the results  were evaluated and the efficiency of the plants compared.
