If you factor in the fossil fuel plants in the background the average system will cost about as much as a home consumes. They produce only a small fraction of rated power and that is eaten up in the maintenance of the system.
The claim is about 5000 KWH
We see about 400 KWH
We use about 435 KWH to maintain
We run fossil fuel plants at 100% to supplement these systems so overall they cost energy

How does wind make electricity?
Turbines actually make the electricity wind, water, and other recources do the work of turning the generators to produce the electricity.
How can you make electricity without cause much polluation?
One of the best ways to make electricity without causing much pollution is the use of solar and wind energy. The sun and wind are the cleanest and purest forms of energy available to us today.
How much electricity is produced by wind?
42 pints of electricity
How do wind turbines amke electricity?
they make electricity by wind blowng on the blades makeing the generator spin
How wind energy works?
A wind turbine works the opposite of a fan. Instead of using electricity to make wind, a turbine uses wind to make electricity. The wind turns the blades, which spin a shaft, which connects to a generator and makes electricity. The electricity is sent through transmission and distribution lines to a substation, then on to homes, business and schools.
What are advantages of wind and wind turbines?
because wind and wind turbines turn in to energy and to make electricity!
How does electricity be generated by wind?
with windmills which gears turn a generator to make electricity
Bad things about wind power?
Wind power depends on using wind to make electricity.
One problem with wind energy as a major source of electricity is?
The problem with wind energy is that it does not produce much electricity. Wind does not flow at all places. So having wind energy as a major source of electricity is not a option.
Why does wind generate electricity?
Wind itself does not generate electricity, but using wind turbines it is converted into mechanical energy and the mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy. "Simply stated, a wind turbine works the opposite of a fan. Instead of using electricity to make wind, like a fan, wind turbines use wind to make electricity. The wind turns the blades, which spin a shaft, which connects to a generator and makes electricity. Take a look inside a wind turbine to see the various parts. View the wind turbine animation to see how a wind turbine works."
What is the cleanest way to make electricity?
wind and solar
How do wind turbines workfor real or else?
'Or else' what? Wind turbines make electricity.
