	<span lang=\"EN-US\">The choice of a wind turbine for a given site is a very significant operation. It is advised to make an in-depth study on the characteristics of the aerogenerator and the implantation site before any installation of a wind farm for choosing well the system best adapted to the energy needs.</span><span lang=\"EN-US\"> </span><span lang=\"EN-US\">The objective of this study is to sensitize the users of the wind energy on the various problems involved in the aerogenerator installation on any site and to provide a decision-making aid to the judicious choice of the wind system best adapted. The idea is to estimate, for a selected implantation site, the energy production and the operating time of several wind systems. We can thus select the aerogenerator best adapted by mak</span><span lang=\"EN-US\">ing a compromise between a maximum recovery of energy and a high time of production. The influence height of the aerogenerator on energy profitability is also studied. We apply this step to the twenty six Tunisian synoptic sites by im</span><span lang=\"EN-US\">plantation scenarios of seven wind systems of various nominal speeds in function of the height.</span><span lang=\"EN-US\"><!--?xml:namespace prefix = o /--><o:p></o:p></span>
