Wind Power

Wind power converts wind energy into electricity using wind turbines. The use of these has become more popular each year but currently produces around 1% of world-wide electricity.

Wind power is generated in the form of electricity by converting the rotation of turbine blades into electrical current by a electrical generator.

Wind power is being used on wind farms for large scale electrical grids and well as small individual turbines.

Wind energy is plentiful, renewable, clean and reduces greenhouse gases, if used to replace fossil fuels.
