For Or Against Wind Farms
These will generate enough power to supply the average electricity needs of 8,500 homes in the local area. This wind farm is not situated out to sea but in the picturesque hills of the Saddleworth Moors and would be visible for miles around. Government targets state that 10% of the UK’s energy should be supplied […]
A Really Intimate Look At Wind Turbines And Deciding What You Might Opt For
Most regions understand that the timing of these actions is speedily sneaking away from us; we see now that we are at the “we need to get it done now stage”. Sooner rather than later, the timing will quickly start to be; we had better get this done and then we wish we had gotten […]
Uses Of Wind Turbines
Wind is a powerful source of energy that has been harnessed for different uses for centuries. More and more scientists and researchers feel that wind can be used effectively as a renewable energy source and this can be done only when power within the moving air can be harnessed properly. The Wind Energy Industry has […]
Wind Turbines
History of Wind Turbines The first wind machines were used in Persia, as far back as 200 B.C for the purposes of grinding grain. By 250 A.D the Romans began to use the same process for the same purpose. The Dutch started using windmills to drain water from the areas lying in the Rhine River […]

Wind turbine generators do little to harm the environment and are far preferable in this regard to fossil fuel. The only disadvantage is that they […]
Wind Power As A Viable Solution To Meeting Alternative Energy Needs
Wind Power as a Viable Solution to Meeting Alternative Energy Needs Although it is much less expensive to initially get hooked into the local electric company’s grid than it is to set up and hook into wind turbines, in the long run one saves money by utilizing the wind for one’s energy needs
Wind Farms Limitations As Energy Platforms
As modern society searches around for alternative energy sources, wind farms are getting mention. There are, however, limitations regarding wind farms as major energy alternatives. Wind Farms – Limitations as Energy Platforms Wind power is an enticing energy platform compared to fossil fuels. The process works by using the inherent energy in wind as a […]
Clean Sources Of Energy To Avoid Contributing To Global Warming
Many people wonder what they can do to help dampen the effects of the climate crisis. One method of doing so incorporates the usage of ‘clean’ energy; that is, energy that does not contribute to the levels of greenhouse gas present in our atmosphere. There are several sources of clean energy, and although it may […]
