Because the sea provides ample cooling for the steam cycle, and there are no large rivers or lakes available in a small country.
What else can I help you with?
Where a wind turbines erected on land or at sea?
Most of the time wind turbines are erected on land.
Where are wind turbines found in the Netherlands?
mostly offshore
Where to build wind turbines?
Well, its kind of obvisus to build one on a windy place for example: a hill, and some are built in the the sea. So mostly places where it is quite winddy, or where wind is likely to be.
Where do wind turbines need to be sited?
places where its windy I've seen them mostly on hills
How is wind energy used now?
wind is used everywhere! we use it to sail and we use wind turbines on farmland,mostly in rural areas.
What is an offshore wind?
It's a collection of wind turbines that are placed out in the sea near the coast. Shallow seas like the North Sea are most suitable.
How tall are the largest wind turbines?
The largest wind turbines can reach up to 260 meters (853 feet) in height. These turbines are typically found in offshore wind farms where the taller height allows them to capture more wind energy at sea.
What is an offshore wind farm?
It's a collection of wind turbines that are placed out in the sea near the coast. Shallow seas like the North Sea are most suitable.
What are some of the different designs of wind turbines?
country side wind turbines and modern turbines
Why do wind turbines only have three arms and not many as in say a jet engine turbine Also why can't they be horizontal like the wind speed generators at airfields?
Yes, There are wind turbines with more than three blades... Basically that would only apply for the turbines which are not commercial like the turbines which are installed at home etc. and there are also wind turbines with horizontal axis, and again that would not apply to commercial wind farm. Usually Wind Turbines are BIG in size and mostly used to Generate Commercial Electricity so installing a Turbine with more than 3 turbines is not a viable thing.
What does wind turbines do?
A wind turbines uses the wind to power an electricity generator.
What is a common type of wind turbine?
Horizontal axis wind turbines, modern wind turbines, vertical axis turbines.
