Optimizing microwind rural electrification projects. A case study in Peru
- EngineeringJ. Glob. Optim.

A mathematical model is developed that gives the location and size or type of the wind turbines and the design of the microgrids, taking into account the demand of the consumption points and the wind potential, and shows that micro grids are used despite the village dispersion, and the solutions significantly reduce the initial investment costs.
