How does wind energy help wind turbines work?
Wind blows on a windmill or wind turbine and makes it rotate. This can be looked at the kinetic energy in the moving air being converted to the kinetic energy of the rotating vanes. The rotating turbine turns a shaft that turns (through gears) a electrical generator. The generator produces electricity. This can be seen as the kinetic energy of the rotating vanes transferred to the kinetic energy of the generator, which converts it to electrical power. The electrical power is then sent into the electric grid.
