Windmills. Most windmills use the wind to force a rotor to rotate which can generate electrcity. The main problem for this power source is being in the right place(some places rarely get enough wind to justify the expense of a windmill).
There also concerns about ecological impact. Animals - birds mostly - have been killed by windmill farms. There concerns about the killing of endangered species by windmill farms that are near habitats of endangered birds. The debate over this continues, with no real 'end' or solution in sight.

What uses the kinetic energy of the air to produce power?
Wind turbines use the kinetic energy of the air to produce power. The rotating blades of the turbine capture the energy from the wind and convert it into electricity through a generator.
Does an electric fan produce energy?
No, it converts it from one form (electrical) to another (kinetic).

What device with blades that uses kinetic energy to turn a generator?
A wind turbine is a device that uses blades to capture kinetic energy from the wind and turn a generator to produce electricity.
Does a windmill use kinetic energy?
Yes, a windmill uses the kinetic energy of the wind to spin its blades, which in turn drives a generator to produce electricity. The kinetic energy of the wind is converted into mechanical energy and then into electrical energy through this process.
What energy uses kinetic energy of the air to turn a generator?
A wind turbine uses kinetic energy of the air to turn a generator. The wind pushes the blades of the turbine, causing them to rotate, which in turn spins the generator to produce electricity.
When an object moves it uses kinetic energy which is called?
When an object moves, it uses kinetic energy.
Does windmill convert mechanical energy to electrical energy?
Yes, wind power is a source of energy.
Does a windmills uses potential or kinetic engery?
Windmills use kinetic energy from the moving air to generate electricity. The wind turns the blades of the windmill, which in turn spin a generator to produce electricity. Potential energy is not directly used in this process.
How power plants generate electrical energy from kinetic energy?
Power plants generate electrical energy from kinetic energy by using a turbine to convert the kinetic energy of steam or falling water into mechanical energy, which then drives a generator to produce electricity. The spinning turbine is connected to a rotor in the generator, causing it to rotate and create an electromagnetic field that generates electricity.
A wind turbine uses the power of the wind to produce nuclear energy?

How does wind and water produce energy?
Wind energy is generated by wind turbines that capture the kinetic energy of the wind and convert it into electricity. Water energy is produced through hydroelectric power plants, where the force of flowing water (from rivers or dams) is used to spin turbines connected to generators to produce electricity.
