Wind energy is used to generate electricity in a manner similar to the way water is used for the same purpose. The wind turns the blades of a giant turbine, which looks like a big fan, and the turbine turns a shaft. When the shaft turns it spins a generator which causes it to make electricity.

The energy in wind used to generate electricity is?
potential energy
How do you conserve wind energy?
Wind energy, or rather, electricity produced from wind energy, can be stored in batteries. It can also be used to pump water uphill. This water can then be used later when needed to generate electricity (hydro-electricity).
Application of wind energy?
Windmills are used to drive generators and generate electricity.
What is a disadvantage of using wind energy to generate electricity?
There are relatively few locations where it can be used.
How can a wind energy used to generate heat?
by using of its blade like a wind mill that generated electricity using it blades that moving by the wind

How do we generate electricity?
We generate electricity from other forms of energy. Such as wind, sun, ect...
Can wind power generate electricity?
Yes, wind power can generate electricity. Wind energy is considered to be an important contributor of renewable energy having no emissions of CO2.
How does wind power produce energy?
They are used to turn the blades of large wind turbines, which generate electricity.
What wind speed is needed to generate electricity?
wind energy
What is a disadvantage of using wind energy to generate electricity?
There are relatively few locations where it can be used.
What kinds of things can wind energy be used for?
Wind energy can be used to spin a pinwheel, generate electricity, ruffle a skirt or a flag, or propel a sailboat.
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.
How will wind be used in 2138?
energy in the form of electricity is generate using windmills for this propose wind farms have been established.
How can a wind energy used to generate heat?
by using of its blade like a wind mill that generated electricity using it blades that moving by the wind
