Renewable energy sources have been target of huge investiments in recent years, driven by the concern for environment plus the need for new sources of energy to diversify the energy matrix and universalize energy. However, despite all investment that has been made, it is estimated that 16% of world's population still doesn't have access to electrical energy. Although Brazil has a predominantly clean energy matrix, it still fails to use unconventional sources, such as solar, wind and biomass. The available wind resources can reach 143,5 GW, and currently only 9% of this potential is exploited. Wind turbines, equipment used for the electromechanical conversion of wind energy, can diversify their constructive form according to the application and local geography, to obtain the best efficiency. The present project will seeks to develop the necessary knowledge for the construction of a mini-generator of energy capable of generating energy to feed a load in an isolated way. To apply the concepts developed in this dissertation a prototype of a Savonius type wind turbine has been developed, using accessible and easy-to-handle materials. For the construction of the mini wind generator has been made use of the DIY (Do It Yourself) technique, which simplifies the construction and possible replication of this prototype.
