Abstract

Local development is aimed at achieving sustainability and energy independence with the use of indigenous resources, in this environment technologies that take advantage of wind energy is one of the most propitious in low wind speed. Since very remote times have been solving different problems in the isolated and rural areas, in the province of Manabí there are no high wind speeds these are maintained between 2.5 and 3.5 m / s. In the research carried out, it was possible to demonstrate the feasibility of implementing small wind turbines in most of the territory of the Chone canton of the province of Manabí, visualizing that the implementation of small-scale technology can provide adequate solutions to the use of the resource since there is potentiality Energy to introduce the technology with the use of micro-wind turbines that its starting speed is in the range of 1-3 m / s, knowing that these only require small technical maintenance, besides being viable technologies to support the change of Energy matrix, generation of jobs and promises to achieve energy independence in isolated rural areas, improving the living conditions of the population and enhancing social development.
