What do wind turbines generate?
electricity.
Why do wind turbines not generate electricity all the time?
cause there isnt always strong windThe wind doesn't blow all the time.Wind turbines have to be part of a larger plan to generate electricity from different sources.
What do windturbines do?
Wind turbines rotate in a circle in the wind and generate electricity
What are the differences between hydroelectric energy and wind energy?
Hydroelectric energy uses water to turn large turbines in damns to generate electricity, while wind energy uses wind to turn wind turbines to generate electricity.
Are wind turbines used to generate electricity from the wind?
Yes. They are hazardous to birds, but the wind propels them.
What is the defintion of wind energy?
Electricity derived from wind action. So windmills or wind turbines which rotate when there is wind present generate electricity.
What can be used to generate electricity but are useful only when the wind blows consistently?
wind turbines, wind mills.
What is the US's ranking in the world for generating electricity from wind?
As of mid 2008, the U.S. is first for generating electricity from wind turbines, before Germany and Spain. the wind turbines get winds kinetic energy and generate it into electricity.
Are there limits to how fast the wind can be to generate electricity?
There is no particular set limit, but the winds we can use to generate electricity are not boundless. Winds that are too strong will damage wind turbines.
How does wind power produce energy?
They are used to turn the blades of large wind turbines, which generate electricity.
What is a system of many wind turbines which work together to generate electricity?
They are collectively known as "Wind Farms".
How can wind flowing water and tides be used to produce electricity?
They can all be used to spin turbines that will generate electricity.
