Renewable energy sources play an important role in fulfilling rising global power demand in a variety of ways. Solar and wind energy are two of the most abundant renewable energy sources. Because of its economic compatibility with traditional energy sources, wind energy has become more popular than solar energy. The market for large wind turbines has reached a saturation point. The small wind turbine business is slowly expanding, necessitating reliable and long-lasting technology. Small wind turbines are made up of two main components: the blade and the generator. Many researchers are attempting to improve the performance and reliability of blades and generators. The objective of this research is to find the optimized alternative natural fiber for wind mill blade as we known the current fiber has some issues their availability, more cost, and the main limitation is non- biodegradable. Currently we use mainly carbon fiber, e-glass fiber for improved strength, low weight, and corrosion resistance among all the parts of a wind turbine, such as blades, hub, gear box, nacelle, and tower. A biodegradable and non-hazardous replacement to windmill blades will be found in this study, and the cost and availability of the material will also be lower and more readily available. Natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites, their characteristics, ingredients, production methods, and flaws will be examined in this study. Ansys will be used in this study to examine the mechanical characteristics of the material, including tensile stress, shear stress, young's modulus, and strength. When all of these studies' findings are combined, we will be able to conclude with confidence which natural fibre is the best substitute in terms of mechanical qualities. Using wind kinetic energy, a wind turbine generates electrical energy. Nacelle and wind turbine blades, as well as other sections of a wind turbine such as blades, hub, gear box, nacelle, and tower, are often made of glass and carbon fibre for increased strength and reduced weight. These have the most significant downsides. This research aims to improve the availability, non-biodegradability, health dangers, and manufacturing costs of materials. These materials are being replaced with natural fibres. It will be examined in this study how natural fibers-reinforced polymer composites are used in wind turbines and what are the requirements for the composites' qualities, ingredients, manufacturing methods, and faults.
