Abstract

Bayu or known as wind is one of several renewable energy sources that have the potential to produce electrical energy. Wind conditions that are not the same between places affect the energy produced. This wind condition is closely related to wind speed, so an experiment is needed to determine the effect of wind speed on the power generated on the PLTB prototype. The method used is to directly measure the power generated by the PLTB prototype which is loaded with different wind conditions. The results obtained with a wind speed of 3.5 m/s capable of producing an average power of 0,0188 watts, then at a wind speed of 4 m/s capable of producing an average power of 0,0241 watts, and a wind speed of 4.3 m/s capable of producing an average power of 0,0283 watts, this shows that wind speed affects the power generated.
