In this study, it has been investigated whether the electrical energy needs of the agricultural plant, which have minimized their production range due to network deprivation in the Southeastern Anatolia Region (Northern Mesopotamia), can be met locally with small wind turbines to increase their product range. Turkey's largest development project in the Southeastern Anatolia Project (GAP), the topography where Tigris and Euphrates Rivers exist was investigated. Data from 24 meteorology stations in nine cities and their speed and direction data, Wind Energy Potential Atlas of the Renewable Energy General Directorate, and satellite images were analyzed simultaneously. In line with the information obtained, the wind characteristics and energy potential of the region have been determined. Also, considering the wind characteristics presence, possible power, and energy values from the small wind turbines that have been chosen as representative are presented. Finally, the capacity factors and the costs of these wind turbines have been compared, and their economic and technical installability has been examined.
