Sumario:Renewable energies have become a topic of great interest in recent years because the natural sources used for the generation of these energies are inexhaustible and non-polluting. In fact, environmental sustainability requires a considerable reduction in the use of fossil fuels, which are highly polluting and unsustainable [1]. In addition, serious environmental pollution is threatening human health, and many public concerns have been raised [2]. As a result, many countries have proposed ambitious plans for the production of green energy, including wind power, and consequently, the market for wind energy is expanding rapidly worldwide [3]. In this research, an evolutionary metaheuristic is implemented, specifically genetic algorithms.
