A single 1.8 mega watt turbine, in one year, can produce 5.0 million kilowatts of electricity and supply enough power to generate for five hundred homes. 20 1.8 mega watt turbines, in one year can produce 2 billion kilowatts of electricity and supply enough power to generate 10,000 homes. 20 1.8 mega watt turbines, over twenty years, can produce 100 billion kilowatts of CLEAN electricity and supply enough power to generate 10,000 homes.

How many watts does an eighty foot tall wind turbine produce?

The height of a wind turbine has no impact on the turbine's output wattage. The factors that effect the watts produced are: * The efficiency of turbine design (this is at most 59%) * the density of the air * the radius of the turbine (that is, the length of each fin) * the velocity of the wind passing through the turbine An 80 ft tall turbine would presumably have a fin length (that is, turbine radius) of at most 30 ft. Thus, at sea level on a 59 degree (F) day, in an 8 m/s (18mi/h) wind, with the most efficient turbine design possible, you would generate approximately 15.4 Kilowatts.

How can a 5mph wind turn a wind turbine?

With a new kind of wind turbine called a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) that can produce electricity in winds as low as 5 mph.


Who invented the first wind turbine?

The inventor of the wind turbine was Charles F. Brush in 1888.


How can windmills help with energy problems around the world?

Green energy is the idea. But to be honest, not much power is produced from each wind turbine, so they don't really help very much, that's why you need SO many of them. For instance a typical power station would be 2000 MW, a typical wind turbine is 2 MW. A typical power station could operate at 100% output for 90% of the time. A typical wind turbine operates at 50% output but is only operating for 50% of the time (when the wind is acceptable). So on average the power station can produce 1800MW whereas the wind turbine is about 0.5 MW.


What is a wind turnbind?

A wind turbine is a form of electric generation. On top of a tall pole there is a turbine (fan thing) and the wind spins it around. The turbine is connected to a motor which generates an electromagnetic flow from the motion.

How many watts produce a wind turbine?

Depends on the generator size tied to the windmill fans. A one 1.8 MW wind turbine in a particular site would produce over 4,7 million units of electricity each year, which is enough to support the annual needs of over 1,000 households, or to run a computer for over 1,620 years. And that is something reliable.

How much wind energy does a turbine make in a year?

The amount of wind energy generated by a turbine in a year can vary depending on factors such as the size and location of the turbine, wind speeds, and maintenance. On average, a typical onshore wind turbine with good wind conditions can produce around 6 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per year, which is enough to power around 1,500 homes.

How many watts of wind power does it take to turn a large wind turbine?

Wind power isn't measured in watts. It takes a certain amount of wind to spin the blades. They can turn the angle of the wind turbine blades to help catch the wind. I beileve the wind has to be at least 30km an hour but i could be wrong. There are lots of places to look that up on the internet. Wikipedia has a fairly good article on wind power. If the wind is going too fast, the often shut down the turbines because they are built to withstand a certain pressure. If the wind is too high (which sometimes happens in Southern Alberta, Canada), they risk destroying the turbines. Watts are a measure of electrical power, not wind power.
