Do wind turbines depend on energy from the sun?
They get their energy from the wind not the sun.
How do wind turbines depend on the sun's energy?
Heating of air by sunlight is the source of wind.
Where does wind energy originate from?
Ultimately, the energy in wind comes from the radiation we get from the Sun.
What is the point in wind turbines?
There is no point in wind turbines
How do Wind turbines capture wind?
The wind turbines collect the wind's kinetic energy.

What is the original energy source used for wind turbines?
Basically - the sun.
What is the point in wind turbines?
There is no point in wind turbines
What are some of the different designs of wind turbines?
country side wind turbines and modern turbines
How does the wind get energy?
Basically from the Sun. The Sun powers our weather systems, which is what makes the winds that spins the turbines blow
How do wind turbines harness the suns energy?
It happens because the Sun heats the ground in the daytime and that heats the air above, which causes winds to flow and drive the blades of the wind turbines.
What role do batteries have in wind turbines?
The wind turbines need the batteries to store the energy. The batteries allow the short-term energy storage within the wind turbine system. This is for cases when the sun isn't shining or the wind isn't blowing.
How do Wind turbines capture wind?

What does wind turbines do?
A wind turbines uses the wind to power an electricity generator.
What is a common type of wind turbine?
