wind, and sometimes they have to use electricity to power the machines they use to make the windmills.
No, Wind power is a RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCE
The wind fuel is one of the forms of renewable energy, in the process of creating wind fuel a generator connected to a propeller and which inturn is connected to a generator which generats power when the wind starts blowing. The power is then stored or relayed to a power plant where in it is stored and used in place of the regular power. Some other forms of renewable energy are Hydropower, Solar power.
A power plant is an engine, a machine, a factory that produces power, usually electricity, by burning coal or oil, or by trapping sunlight, heat, movement and using that to generate electricity.The power plant is not a renewable resource. When it breaks or needs replacing all new materials have to be found and installed.The source of the power is renewable if it is sunlight or wind or the power of moving water.The source of the power is NOT renewable if it is a fossil fuel like coal, oil or natural gas.
Wind energy is a very clean source of energy and there is no by product. It does not produce any harmful greenhouse gases. Wind power consumes no fuel.
Wind is a natural phenomenon caused by large volumes of air moving as they are heated and cooled by the sun. It doesn't require any fuel to be burnt at all, as all energy comes form the sun. Actually wind ends up consuming a great deal of fossil fuel. The volume is ignored though to make wind seem green. Wind is a variable source of energy and our demand requires a constant source. As a result fossil fuel plants run behind wind systems and supply power during weaker wind moments. Only the wind power is considered and the idling plant is ignored in terms of CO2 output. This makes wind a very dirt power source. They typically produce about 5 to 8% of what is claimed they produce. A wind system that is claimed can power "up to 100 homes" typically can do less then 10.
Wind isn't considered a type of fuel at all. Wind is a renewable energy source though.
Iceland should be able to use geothermal power. They could also use wind power

from wind.
The wind!
Wind turbines consume no fuel therefore there is not the added cost of purchasing fuel to make them operate. Wind is a renable source because it's inexhaustable and always available. Wind power is the lowest-cost renewable energy technology available today.
Yes, in the sense that it is an energy source which can be harnessed.
