Depends on the size of the windmill and how much wind is available.
Domestic wind turbines are an interesting hobby, but practically cost so much they will struggle to break even over 25 years. You can't rely on it to be windy enough in most places.
Large scale Wind Farms can provide huge amounts of energy but obviously you can't put them in your back yard.
Home Depot sells a residential wind turbine that outputs up to 900 watts or 60 amps (in ideal conditions). The largest wind turbines can generate up to 7 megawatts!

Application of wind energy?
Windmills are used to drive generators and generate electricity.
Does wind energy create pollution?
no because the wind spinds the windmills which then generate power
Do windmills blow?
No. Windmills have their blades angled in such a way as to catch moving air or wind. When the wind hits the blades it pushes them and they spin, which then gets other gears of the windmill turning, which then generate energy for whatever it is they need that energy to do. So the windmills themselves do not make wind or "blow".
What energy is used in windmills?
Windmills use wind energy.
What is the defintion of wind energy?
Electricity derived from wind action. So windmills or wind turbines which rotate when there is wind present generate electricity.
Why do you build windmills in the Netherlands?
They build windmills to generate 'clean and ecofriendly' energy.

What do windmills generate?
They generate electricity produced by wind.
What are some positive effects of windmills to generate energy?

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 do older windmills and new windmills differ?
older windmills make more energy than newer windmills
Do small personal windmills generate enough electricity for my whole house?
Each house is different and there are many things to take into account when thinking of using windmills to power your house. You have to take into consideration how much power you use and how much wind your area gets when calculating how many windmills you will need. It can take up to 8 windmills to power the average house.
Do windmills use kinetic energy?
Windmills transform the kinetic energy of the moving air mass into other energy forms.
