So far it is free because wind is a renewable energy source but you have to count the turbine and generator and everything that produces the electricity.
Wind energy costs 5million a year
£10,234 to be exact.
See the entry on Satielites.Wind energy is very efficient (makes money) when the wind is blowing but when it stops, it's all overhead.This means it cost too much.
This is a question of how much electrical energy you want to produce, against the cost of the equipment to produce it.
5 cents per kilowatt hour
wind energy is free
The cost of wind energy can vary depending on factors such as location, size of the wind farm, and government incentives. However, on average, wind energy typically costs around 2 to 10 cents per kilowatt-hour, which is equivalent to approximately 0.0056 to 0.028 joules per kilowatt-hour.
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 energy is generally becoming more cost-competitive with fossil fuels, as the cost of wind energy has been decreasing over the years while the cost of fossil fuels can fluctuate. In some regions, wind energy is already cheaper than fossil fuels, making it a more attractive option for generating electricity.
Around 2% of energy consumption is wind energy.
Around 2% of energy consumption is wind energy.
Not as Much as Wind, Because Solar Panels Cost More Than Wind Turbines , If the Two Create The Same Amount Of Energy The Solar Would Have Costed More to produce the Panels.
