Research and development of renewable energy has been ongoing in Ireland since 2004. Wind farms have been built in Cork, Donegal, Mayo and Antrim.
As Ireland is on the west of Europe and the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, it gets a lot of wind, particularly along the west coast, so it is ideal for setting up wind turbines. There are many wind turbines around Ireland, with lots more planned.
wind farms are built to produce electricity through wind power
wind farms are built to produce electricity through wind power
wind farms are built and turbines are put up. As the wind blows it turns the turbines generating electricity.
There are wind farms in each state of Australia as well as in the Northern Territory. As of 2013, South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia each have nineteen wind farms; New South Wales has 9; Queensland has 8; Tasmania has 7; and the Northern Territory has 4.

There is no evidence of a relationship between tornadoes and wind farms. However, wind farms are often built on open plains, and the central plains of the U.S. are a tornado prone region.

Wind farms are usually located on mountains and high land as strong winds blow there.Wind farms are an important source of energy and the number of wind farms is growing rapidly. There are numerous advantages to a wind farm, like that they provide, green, clean energy, and have a small ecological footprint.
A wind farm is a large area of land in which wind mills are spread out. The more they spin they more energy they generate, they generate energy when the wind is anyway between 12 - 75 Kmph.
Wind farms were invented in Persia.
Wind farms are being built because they can provide clean renewable energy. So once the initial costs have been paid for, the electricity is practically free. It is clean because wind power has no greenhouse gas emissions. Using wind power means we need less fossil fuelled power which is causing global warming and climate change.
