In this research, an experimental design was prepared for a wind farm consisting of a set of Darrieus type wind turbines with a vertical axis, where we conducted a design and economic study for the installation of 25 turbines along the international road (Basra Al-Amarah) in the southeastern region of Iraq and this design will lead to obtaining Electricity of about 35 megawatts, thus saving $165,451.65 per year if a renewable energy source is used. Also, by calculating the savings as a result of not releasing CO2 gas, $357,142,284 is saved per year. This type of turbine can be applied to a large number of roads around the world because of its positive effects to get rid of the energy resource crisis in regions with suitable wind potential.

Keywords: Darrieus' Turbine, Wind Power, Wind Turbine.
