WIND POWER

WHAT IS WIND POWER

• Wind power is powered though the air flow though wind turbines to mechanically power generators for electric power. Wind power,as an alternative to burning fossil fuels is plentiful renewable,widely distributed clean,produces no Greenhouse gas emission during operation consumes no water and uses little land.The effects on the environment are for less problematic then those of non renewable

THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF WIND POWER

• The advantages:
• Wind is a renewable energy resource and they are no fuel cost
• No harmful polluting gases and products
• Disadvantages
• Wind farms are noisy and may spoil the view for people living near then
• Plants may complain about the noise

WHERE WIND FARMS ARE LOCATED

• Many of the largest operational onshore wind farms are located in
• China
• India
• United States
• The largest wind farm is Gansu wind farm in china

HOW MUCH WIND DOES WIND POWER PRODUCED

• The output of a wind turbine depended on the turbines size and the wind speed thought the rotor an average onshore wind turbine with a capacity of 2.5-3 MW can produce more than 6 million KWH in a a year enough to supply 1,500 average EU households with electricity.
