Method for manufacturing a wind turbine tower structure based on wind direction

A method for manufacturing a tower structure of a wind turbine at a wind turbine site, the method comprising:

• determining a predominate wind direction at the wind turbine site;
• determining an optimized shape of the tower structure based on the predominate wind direction, the optimized shape of the tower structure being non-symmetrical;
• printing, via an additive printing device, one or more molds on a foundation of the wind turbine, wherein the one or more molds define the optimized shape of the tower structure;
• filling the one or more molds, at least in part, with a cementitious material;
• and,
• curing the cementitious material within the one or more molds so as to form the tower structure.
