Summary/Abstract: The ever-increasing population around the world, the rapidly developing urbanization process and the increasing energy need increase the need for renewable energy sources day by day. In this study, it was aimed to select the most suitable location for the Wind Power Plant in Ondokuz Mayıs University Kurupelit Campus. In line with this purpose, firstly the criteria were determined and the necessary data was obtained in line with these determined criteria. The obtained data were converted into the common coordinate system chosen for the study and arranged according to the boundaries of the study area. Separate analyzes were carried out for each data according to the characteristics of the data. The individual impact and weight values of the data were determined by taking into account expert opinions using the Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis method, in accordance with the legal basis and acceptance required for the use of analysis results and obtaining a result map. After all these processes, the most suitable areas for wind power plant construction were determined with the support of Geographic Information Systems software and the result map was produced.
