cheap and easy to maintain
No. Wind farms are very unreliable as a constant source of energy. They are also expensive to build and maintain.
have no idea
In order to produce wind energy, many turbines must be constructed. These turbines are expensive to produce and maintain.
It has not progressed much in terms of cost effectiveness. It still uses more energy to fabricate, put together and maintain a wind turbine than it will produce in ten years.
wind farms provide electricity. Wind farms cost more to maintain and construct than the energy that they provide. In addition they very inefficient because they only work when there is wind.
Its a free & easy way 2 produce energy

Solar energy would be the cheapest to maintain but installation costs are high. Wind energy would be free when the wind blows, but again would cost a lot to install. There are many variables that go into what makes energy sources the pricing that they are.
The US DOES use wind energy- but it is not free. Wind generators cost money to build and to maintain. The wind does not always blow, and winds may blow in an area that does not need electricity. there is a cost to moving electricity from one area to another.
Though they are both sustainable sources of energy, both of these forms of energy production are extremely expensive to create. Because solar energy is a relatively new form of energy, the materials and production of the final product are both complicated and expensive to create. Wind energy, though not new, is still quite expensive to make and maintain. The reason is because the turbines you see driving along the road are massive structures and have many components to clean, replace, and maintain throughout said turbines' life. So, though at face value, these are cheap, easy forms of energy, they actually are rather expensive ways to harvest energy. But, they are sustainable, and as long as the wind still blows and the sun shines, these forms of energy will always be viable.
Yes. There is some pollution and carbon dioxide emitted in the manufacture of the turbines, but once they are installed they are very easy to maintain and they produce electricity without any of the harmful byproducts of fossil fuel power stations.
