How tall can wind turbines get?
Wind turbines can be up to 262 feet high.
What are some of the different designs of wind turbines?
country side wind turbines and modern turbines
What are wind turbines made?
Wind energy is made by spinning turbines. The wind spins the wind turbines and they generate energy.
What makes wind turbines sustainable?
Wind Turbines are sustainable that is the biological straight forward answer.
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.
How tall can wind turbines get?

Why are wind turbines so loud?
when wind gose threw the spikes on the the turbines it makes nosies , so faster louder it is.
What are the reasons for high cost of wind energy?
In order to produce wind energy, many turbines must be constructed. These turbines are expensive to produce and maintain.
Do wind turbines use radioactive substances?
So far there are no known reasons to use radioactive substances in wind turbines.
What is the point in wind turbines?
There is no point in wind turbines
What are some of the different designs of wind turbines?
country side wind turbines and modern turbines
How do Wind turbines capture wind?
The wind turbines collect the wind's kinetic energy.
What does wind turbines do?
A wind turbines uses the wind to power an electricity generator.
Why are wind turbines not placed next to one another?
The wind farmers usually want to spread them out so the propellers do not collide. They also want to spread the turbines out so that they can catch the wind wherever it is.
What is a common type of wind turbine?
Horizontal axis wind turbines, modern wind turbines, vertical axis turbines.
What are wind turbines made?
Wind energy is made by spinning turbines. The wind spins the wind turbines and they generate energy.
How is wind power used to make elecricity?
Wind is caused by huge convection currents in the Earth's atmosphere, driven by heat energy from the Sun. The moving air has huge amounts of kinetic energy, and this can be transferred into electrical energy using wind turbines. Wind turbines cannot work if there is no wind, or if the wind speed is so high it would damage them.
