%X The industrialization, which started with the industrial revolution, caused some negative consequences as well as positive consequences. Unfortunately, the first of the negative consequences is the damage to the environment. Renewable energy sources, especially in developed countries, have become the main solution to meet energy demand. Due to the fact that renewable energy sources are both abundant in nature and environmentally friendly, serious investments are being made in this field. This shows that renewable energy resources and attitudes towards these resources are important. The aim of this study is to test the validity and reliability of the wind energy scale used to measure attitudes related to wind energy, which is one of the renewable energy sources. For this purpose, after the pre-test, explanatory and confirmatory factor analyses were performed on a sample consisting of N=264 units. The model fit indices were as follows: X2/df = 2.963; GFI = 0.94; CFI = 0.95; RMSEA = 0.086 and SRMR = 0.049. As a result of these fit index values, it is observed that the model has an acceptable fit and the Turkish form of the wind energy scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool
