Abstract Given the variable nature of wind speed and the importance of accurately determining the energy that can be generated at a given site, understanding the wind speed at different time scales is crucial. In addition to differences within a very short period (i.e., hourly and daily), these changes are also pronounced throughout the seasons. They are affected by the atmospheric conditions and the terrain's complexity. Therefore, this study investigates the seasonal wind speed variability and its impact on the potential energy generation in a representative study case of Koznica, the mountainous region in Kosovo. The wind speed measurements campaign started in May 2019 and ended in April 2020; the measurements were made at a 10 min time scale. Ground measurements show that the wind direction is mainly northwest and southeast. Then, the wind speed and potential energy generation variability analysis were conducted for three different measurement heights. The results show that winter and spring have the highest potential wind energy capacity with an average speed of 6.7 m/s. In comparison, the average wind speed is 6.12 m/s. Potential energy generation for each season (i.e., spring, summer, autumn, and winter is as follows: 64,396.7, 22,040.3, 42,539.3, and 46,417.2 MWh/year, respectively, while the average capacity factor is 25%. Solution-oriented findings from this study might provide valuable insights to policymakers and investors regarding wind power energy exploration in Kosovo and other places with similar geo-climatic conditions.

Abstract Since the construction industry is one of the major sectors responsible for the overexploitation of natural resources and the production of greenhouse gases, there is an urgent need to adopt a sustainable and environmental friendly approach to mitigate climate degradation. Research has explored the potential of recycled aggregate (RA) as a viable alternative to natural aggregate in concrete production. Currently, several treatment methods are being employed to enhance the efficient incorporation of RA into concrete, aiming to address this issue. However, the effective utilization of RA in place of NA remains uncommon. In this study, an effort has been made to develop a low-carbon recycled aggregate concrete by utilizing 100% carbonation treated recycled coarse concrete aggregate (CRCCA) in place of natural coarse aggregate (NCA) and alccofine as mineral admixture. A comprehensive analysis was performed, comparing the properties of CRCCA to those of untreated recycled coarse concrete aggregate. This analysis covered changes in weight, bulk density, water absorption, crushing value, and microstructure. Furthermore, five different concrete mixes were prepared, each varying in the proportion of natural coarse aggregate (NCA), untreated RCCA, and CRCCA. These mixes also incorporated alccofine as a mineral admixture. The evaluation process involved assessing the effectiveness of carbonation treatment and alccofine addition through tests on the workability, water absorption, density, and compressive strength of the concrete mixes. The study demonstrated that carbonation treatment of RCCA resulted in substantial improvements in crushing value and water absorption of CRCCA, alongside enhanced workability, reduced water absorption, and increased density in CRCCA concrete. Moreover, CRCCA concrete exhibited notable compressive strength gains at both 28 and 90 days compared to untreated RCCA concrete. Furthermore, the use of CRCCA and alccofine contributed to reducing GHG emissions associated with cement production, emphasizing the environmentally friendly attributes of this low-carbon concrete formulation.
