wind energy generation than others. In general, wind speeds are higher near the coast and offshore since there are fewer objects like vegetation, mountai. and buildings to slow them
How Do Wind Turbines Work? Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan—wind turbines use wind to make electricity. Wind turns the
Biomass has been utilized for power generation, heating, cooking, steam raising, hydropower, wind energy for mobility, and eventually for the production of electricity for centuries. The
There are two primary types of wind turbines used in implementation of wind energy systems: horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) and vertical-axis wind turbines

Wind power is the use of wind energy to generate useful work. Historically, wind power was used by sails, windmills and windpumps, but today it is mostly used to generate electricity. This article deals only with wind power for electricity generation. Today, wind power is generated almost completely using wind turbines, generally grouped into wind farms and connected to the electrical grid.
