Since earliest times windmills have been used to manage water and grind grain. Holland developed windmills to pump water out of low lying lakes and lagoons. Wind power was the main source of energy after wood until the Industrial Revolution and the regular burning of coal.
Windmills have been used to pump water (for agricultural installations, for example) by gearing the windmill shaft to a pump shaft. They have also been used to charge batteries which provide electrical power in rural locations.
