Wind energy and solar energy are alternative energy sources they are NOT the same, solar energy comes from the suns heat while wind energy comes from the wind. Solar energy is generally collected with solar panels while wind energy is generated when the wind turns wind mill like structures that in turn, turn turbines that generate electricity.
Solar energy comes from the sun. So does wind energy.
Fossil fuels also ultimately derived from the sun.
The only energy sources that are NOT solar are geothermal energy, which comes from heat generated by the decay of long lived isotopes deep within the earth, which were formed in some supernova long before our sun formed, and nuclear power (both fusion and fission).
Hydropower? The sun drives the water cycle.
Absolutely. With the assistance of the rotating Earth.
Warming the ground (or the sea) warms the air above it. The air rises (and the pressure falls) and air from higher pressure areas move in i.e. Wind.
Wind energy is not a form of solar energy. The word solar implies something related to the sun. Today, wind energy is being called an "alternative energy source," as is solar energy.
No. Wind is a form of alternative energy.
Sun = solar. if you use wind then you would have to call it wind energy.
Solar energy is energy that comes from the sun.
Solar energy comes from the sun.
The energy from the Sun is solar energy.
wind does originally come from the sun the sun heats the earth the heated earth causes wind
Wind energy is not called solar energy. Solar energy is the energy from the sun, while wind energy is just wind energy.
solar energy is energy from the sun and wind energy is energy from the wind
No, wind energy comes from the wind and solar energy comes from the sun.
Sun = solar. if you use wind then you would have to call it wind energy.
One difference is the source: solar energy comes from the sun, while wind energy comes from the movement of air. Another difference is the way energy is converted: solar energy is converted directly using solar panels, while wind energy is converted through wind turbines.
The energy to create wind comes from solar energy.
Wind power is not a type of solar energy. Wind power is generated by harnessing the kinetic energy of moving air, while solar energy is derived from capturing sunlight and converting it into electricity. Both are forms of renewable energy, but they are distinct sources with different mechanisms of generation.
The difference between solar energy and wind energy is that solar energy comes from the sun and is in the form of waves. However they are both renewable energy resources.
Solar energy is energy that comes from the sun.
The Sun. The Sun.
Solar energy comes from the sun.
The energy from the Sun is solar energy.
