Hydroelectricity (generated from water), geothermal electricity (generated from the landmass), solar thermal power (generated from the sun) and wind power. (generated from wind)
green power
Wind power isn't stored. It is immediately generated into electricity that goes straight into the power lines. This is why there has to be power lines in and area for it to be able to have a wind farm.

It will not It can always be generated from solar power Or wave power from oceans Or wind power And so on
wind turbines are turned by the wind
using wind turbines !
The amount of electricity generated by either wind or solar depends upon the investment in the generating equipment, which is either windmills or solar panels respectively. However, the potential for solar power is larger. Even in outer space, where it would not be possible to generate electricity by wind power (the solar wind is not nearly strong enough) you can generate solar power. Potentially, very large amounts of solar power could be generated in outer space and sent back to Earth in the form of microwave transmissions. But for now, more power is being generated by wind.
The majority of he UK's electricity is generated by coal or gas-fired power stations. We also use nuclear power, wind and wave generators.
Today - Wind power plants-or "wind farms"-generate power across the US and Europe, and with continuing research and development, wind-generated electricity is comparable in cost to other power sources.
They use a generator to turn it into Electricity
The main obstacle to using wind power to generate electricity is the intermittent nature of wind. Wind speeds can fluctuate, causing variability in the amount of power generated. This creates challenges in integrating wind power into the electrical grid and requires the use of energy storage or backup power sources to ensure a reliable electricity supply.
