- 15. WIND POWER -What is it? All renewable energy (except tidal and geothermal power), ultimately comes from the sun Wind power is the conversion of wind energy into a useful form, such as electricity, using wind turbines About one or 2 percent of this energy is converted to wind energy (which is about 50- 100 times more than the energy converted to biomass by all plants on earth
- 16. •A wind turbineobtains its power input by converting the force of the wind into a torque (turning force) acting on the rotor blades. •The amount of energy which the wind transfers to the rotor depends on the density of the air, the rotor area, and the wind speed.
- 17. Wind power isgenerarated by using wind mill. A Windmill captures wind energy and then uses a generator to convert it to electrical energy How it is Generated
- 18. Advantages of WindPower •The wind blows day and night, which allows windmills to produce electricity throughout the day. (Faster during the day) •Energy output from a wind turbine will vary as the wind varies, although the most rapid variations will to some extent be compensated for by the inertia of the wind turbine rotor.
