Air flow through wind turbines or sails can produce significant mechanical power. Windmills are used for their mechanical power, windpumps for water pumping, and sails to propel ships, but the most frequent current use is to turn a generator for electrical power. Wind power, as an alternative to burning fossil fuels, is plentiful, renewable, widely distributed, clean, produces no greenhouse gas emissions during operation, and uses little land. The net effects on the environment are far less problematic than those of nonrenewable power sources.
Wind farms consist of many individual wind turbines which are connected to the electric power transmission network. Onshore wind is an inexpensive source of electricity, competitive with or in many places cheaper than coal or gas plants. Offshore wind is steadier and stronger than on land, and offshore farms have less visual impact, but construction and maintenance costs are considerably higher. Small onshore wind farms can feed some energy into the grid or provide electricity to isolated off-grid locations.
June 21 -- Hello World’s Ashlee Vance paid a recent visit to Iceland’s capital city of Reykjavik to see the next part of the green energy story. He found a start-up called Icewind that is building a new type of funky wind turbine designed to perform well in low-wind conditions but also to slow itself down in high-winds, preventing it from catching on fire or ripping apart.

With a hub height of 135 m (443 ft), rotor diameter of 126 m (413 ft) and a total height of 198 m (650 ft), this large model can generate up to 7.58 megawatts of power per turbine. The power output of the generator was changed from 6 MW to 7 MW after technical revisions were performed in 2009. The weight of the foundation of the turbine tower is about 2,500 t, the tower itself 2,800 t, the machine housing 128 t, the generator 220 t, the rotor (including the blade) 364 t. The total weight is about 6,000 t. The first turbine of this model was installed in Emden, Germany in 2007. The list price of one unit is $14 million plus install ...
Homemade Wind Turbine Generator! Wind Power Generator. Easy DIY Instructions. items needed: PVC Pipe, propeller blade, DC motor and wire. Stand is made of 3/4" PVC. Produces essentially "free" usable power to run radios and small lights etc... add the optional battery/inverter for making AC power. adding a storage battery also makes it possible to run larger items (whether the wind is blowing or not) ...and add a small inverter to run AC powered items. this "table top" size model would be useful in many off-grid situations including SHTF/Emergency/Power Outage/Camping/Rural Living etc... simple assembly/disassembly. durable, lightweight and portable. notes: propeller blades of this kind can be found at your local hobby store. use PVC Pipe Cement to make the stand more "permanent". the wire...
Wind power is set to play a vital role in the UK's future energy mix, yet the truth of its versatility and usefulness is often lost in a bluster of myths and untruths. Our Wind Power Facts video is packed with interesting and current facts about wind power, and is a great learning resource about wind energy. The video sets out factually supported evidence of the expediency of wind power, answers a host of common questions and dispels a cloud of myths which surround the industry. Following popular demand we have put all of the facts, calculations and references from the video on the ASC Renewables website which you can find here at http://www.ascrenewables.com/content/wind-power-facts.aspx Thanks and acknowledgements: Creative talent: Cristina Chapman and TBI media.

Wind is a valuable renewable energy source. Limitations like cost and space needed to build make it hard for some wind turbine projects to get off the ground. Hopefully, advancements can be made so that there is a way to store the energy that is produced via wind turbines in the future.

Wind power is one of the fastest growing forms of alternative energy in the world. More and more, wind power mills are seen in the countryside, in large wind farms and for the most part, away from city life. But a new form of wind power is now designed to work in an urban environment. VOA producer Zulima Palacio has the story. Mill Arcega narrates.
#TeamKB, This video provides 5 simple steps to install a wind turbine and 12 solar panels for an OFF THE GRID home.

You won't believe it, but the future is now! This adorable kid and his dad figured out a clever way to power his tricycle with the leaf blower and the result is more impressive than we can say! Unfortunately the wind power was also more than this kid was expecting and he ends up learning just how strong a leaf blower can be!
Wind is a natural resource that enables us to produce electricity, a renewable energy.
BLOCK ISLAND WIND FARM: America's first offshore wind farm. Comprised of 5 wind turbines, the Block Island Wind Farm is scheduled to begin full operation by November 2016, providing 30 megawatts of clean, renewable energy to Block Island and Rhode Island, which is enough to power 17,000 homes. Over the course of the two construction seasons totaling 18 weeks, 90 piledrivers from Locals 94, 56, 43 & 24 installed the jacket-leg foundations for the wind turbines, amounting to 170,000 hours worked. The UBC millwrights also played a key role in preparing the turbine machinery for installation. music by Roulet: http://bit.ly/2envX6r _____________ Subscribe to NERCC on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/NERCC?sub_confirmation=1 Like NERCC on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NewEnglandRe.....
A variable pitch controlled wind turbine with a 54m rotor. The first prototype was installed in 1997, since then over 20MW have been installed and are successfully operating in Germany, Austria and Canada.

Musselroe Wind Farm ~ The Full Story http://www.hydro.com.au/energy/musselroe-wind-farm Lying south of the 40th parallel in the path of prevailing westerly winds, Tasmania has excellent resources for the generation of wind power. The Musselroe Wind Farm site is 100 kilometres north-east of Launceston and 20 kilometres north of Gladstone. It is an agricultural property owned by Hydro Tasmania. The Musselroe Wind Farm consists of 56 Vestas V90 wind turbines, with a generating capacity of 168 MW. The project included the construction of a transmission line to connect the wind farm to the electricity grid at Derby. Wind has been monitored at the Musselroe site since the early 1980s. Data gathered suggests that the area's wind resource is world class. This 20 documentary shows how teams d...
