Just like power plants. Each Wind Turbine has a generator. The generator has a magnet with a type of wires wrapped the are in a spiral tube. The Magnet is on a axle, the axle spins from the wind moving the wind turbine. The Magnet spins inside the wires and in generates electricity. The power then gos to a base where it provides energy to where ever it is needed.

What is wind wind energy's weakness?

The problem with wind energy is that it is usually generated via wind turbines. Wind turbines take a lot of energy to make, and unfortunately, it uses more than it will generate in it's lifetime.


What has to be built for wind energy to be used?

Wind Turbines. They have a motor inside of them that produces energy when the blades of the turbine turn and when they turn energy is generated by the wind turning the blades and the motor. <><><> In addition to the wind turbines, you need a grid of powerlines to carry the electricity to where it will be used. This frequently costs more than the wind turbines.


Why are wind turbines noisy?

The noise is generated by the rotation if the blades as the wind turns them round. This also the process that produces energy!
