What is wind energy or wind power
Answers
• Wind power is the use of air flow through wind turbines to provide the mechanical power to turn electric generators.
• Wind power, as an alternative to burning fossil fuels, is plentiful, renewable, widely distributed, clean, produces no greenhouse gas emissions during operation, consumes no water, and uses little land.
the energy produced due to motion of wind is called wind energy .
wind energy first change into mechanical energy and then it is converted into electrical energy using turbine connected to fan which rotate (mechanical energy ) and this helps to rotate the turbine and produce electrical energy .
advantages of wind energy
it does not cause air pollution,water pollution etc .
disadvantages of wind energy
it is costly to construct .
it required windy area to produce electricity .
