Wind energy is an abundant renewable energy source all around the world as it is always available and said to be infinite. This research paper investigated the possibility of successfully installing wind turbines in certain parts of Malaysia as an alternative energy source. Generally, there are two types of wind turbines, namely the VerticalAxis Wind Turbine (VAWT) and the HorizontalAxis Wind Turbine (HAWT). The study includes the advantages, disadvantages, practicality, implementation cost, and comparison between the two types of the wind turbine. An investigation has been done to figure out which type of wind turbine is suitable and sustainable for East Malaysia. The general wind conditions in East Malaysia were included in the analytical calculations of power and efficiency of the HAWT, which further demonstrates why it is more suitable for East Malaysia than the VAWT. Thus, it is evident that Malaysia would truly benefit from implementing a wind turbine as a renewable energy source. A simulation of HAWT and VAWT wind turbine was done on SolidWorks to further investigate the overall efficiency of wind turbines in offshore areas of Malaysia. Moreover, a few recommendations have been added such as making efforts to raise awareness of the need to implement wind turbines by reaching out to government bodies, nongovernment associations, and the public, for the future and benefit of the people
