decided to choose this topic because wind turbines is one of the answer against the global warming‚ it is a completely renewable source of energy. When it is installed‚ running cost are lower than many other electrical systems. While running‚ wind power do not produce carbon dioxide. However‚ all structure have an impact on the environment. Many people complain about the damage to local eco-system‚ to the visual impact as well as the noise that produce. Wind turbine seems to be clean when they

Renewable sources of energy Wind energy Wind Energy‚ energy contained in the force of the winds blowing across the earth’s surface. When harnessed‚ wind energy can be converted into mechanical energy for performing work such as pumping water‚ grinding grain‚ and milling lumber. By connecting a spinning rotor (an assembly of blades attached to a hub) to an electric generator‚ modern wind turbines convert wind energy‚ which turns the rotor‚ into electrical energy. Because wind is a clean and renewable

energy sources like solar and wind energy will see increased use to replace traditional sources. One of these sources‚ wind energy‚ is seeing a rise in development because it is a source of renewable energy that is both sustainable and poses minimal costs to the environment. Wind power has been around for many centuries‚ and has steadily developed over the last 100 years. The first major usage of wind power in the United States was between 1870-1930 when farmers used wind energy to pump water (Union

Definition of Wind Energy “Wind Energy - Energy received from the movement of the wind across the earth. This energy is a result of the heating of our oceans‚ earth‚ and atmosphere by the sun. Turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical or electrical energy that can be used for power.” The German physicist Albert Betz calculated in 1919 the possible maximum amount of energy that can be extracted out of wind energy. He came to the result of 59.3% that can be extracted and named this

Wind Energy Wind energy is a free‚ renewable resource‚ so no matter how much is used today‚ there will still be the same supply in the future. Because the wind energy is also the source of the clean‚ and non- polluting‚ electricity. Wind energy is friendly to the surrounding environment‚ as no fossil fuels were to generate electricity from wind energy. Wind Energy is a viable industry that has become energy source. The energy generated from wind is clean and efficient. The wind energy industry
