What is the bad thing about wind energy?
They are not reliable and make a lot of noise
Why can't people rely on wind power alone to satisfy their energy needs?
Wind is not constant or reliable,
Why isn't wind energy a day by day reliable resource?
The reason for that is because it may not be windy every day therefore he wind turbines will not work
Negatives of wind energy?
* expensive to set up * a blemish on the countryside * not as efficient as a power station * affects natural habitats * not reliable
What is mean by wind energy?
wind energy is energy that is caused by the wind a example of this is wind turbines
How reliable is wind turbines?
wind turbines are very reliable in production of wind energy which in turn helps in the production of electrical energy
Why is the wind not a reliable source of energy?
it can run out
What is the bad thing about wind energy?

Why can't people rely on wind power alone to satisfy their energy needs?
Wind is not constant or reliable,
Are wind farms a reliable source of energy?
No. Wind farms are very unreliable as a constant source of energy. They are also expensive to build and maintain.
Is tidal energy an renewable energy source?
Yes, it sure is. And far more reliable than wind!
Is wind energy reliable?
Not day by day, but over a year there will be an average wind which won't vary much from year to year.
Why is wind an energy source with limited use?
Well it is a good renewable source of energy BUT the strength of the wind varies over time and the source is therefore not constantly reliable.
Why is wind power not always a reliable energy resoure?
Because the wind varies in strength and direction. You can't be certain of having a steady wind every day that you need it.
Why isn't wind energy a day by day reliable resource?
The reason for that is because it may not be windy every day therefore he wind turbines will not work
Are fossil fuels the most efficient energy source available?
No. Nuclear energy is the most efficient in producing steam for use in engines. 15-20% of the energy in fossil fuels is lost up chimneys into the atmosphere, and is unusable. Solar and Wind energy farms cannot harness or convert effectively all the energy in the sunlight or wind and have much lower actual efficiencies. Fossil fuels presently are the cheapest and most reliable energy source available. Solar and wind energy are less reliable.
What can humans do to save wind energy?
Wind energy is a form of renewable energy source. That means that it's a kind of energy that is 'produced' using natural methods (wind, solar, ocean waves) and can be renewed as more of that source is available. So, the more wind you can capture using, say, a wind turbine, the more energy you will have collected. Wind energy has a downside as a cause of noise and visual pollution since wind farms need specific sites to run. They are not completely reliable either, since they depend on the inconsistent nature of wind generated at any time.
