Are there any wind turbines in Massachusetts?
Yes. There are lots of wind turbines in MA.
Why are wind turbines not 100 percent efficient?
In any machine some energy is always lost as heat. In a wind turbine most of this will be created by friction between parts.
Do wind turbines have any lights on them?
No, No there isn't!!
What would happen if there were no wind turbines?
We wouldn't have any wind energy!
How many wind turbines at hunstanton?
There are not any wind turbines in Hunstanton yet. One supermarket has applied to build a small turbine.
Does wind turbines have any harmful effects on wildlife?
yes
Does the making of new wind turbines cause any pollution?
no
Is there any pollution created by wind turbines?
No, there is nothing a wind turbine could do to create pollution.
What energy source does not require waste disposal?
Energy produced by wind turbines does not require any waste disposal. 9.8 percent of the energy consumed in the state of Michigan is produced from wind turbines.
What kind of fossil fuel do wind turbines need to produce electricity?
You obviously don't understand what fossil fuels are-coal, oil, natural gas. Wind turbines don't need any of these to produce electricity
Is wind energy popular?
Some areas very popular, but it all depends on if there is any wind, etc. I think that wind turbines only generate energy for the area around them.
Why is wind energy better to use than fossil fuels?
Wind energy is not better than water energy. They are both very similar in that they are: * free (after the initial cost of the turbines) * sustainable (they won't run out) * renewable (they are still there tomorrow even if we use them completely today) If there is no wind, then the wind turbines don't turn to provide electricity. This can happen quite often, unless the turbines are placed where the wind blows non-stop all year round. If there is no water, then the water turbines don't turn. This will happen only rarely if the turbines are placed in the best position. Using ocean waves and tides will be more reliable than rivers which can dry up in droughts.
