Best Answer

The sun is more powerful than the wind because it provides the energy that drives wind patterns. Solar radiation heats the Earth's surface unevenly, creating temperature variations that generate wind as air moves to equalize these temperature differences. So, ultimately, the sun is the primary source of energy for the wind.
