I live near a big Windmill park on the island named Smøla in Western Norway. Each mill produce ca 2MW. The production depend on the strength of the wind and the amount of time giving wind. It is an estimate that 68 mills support 25000 inhabitants with electric energy.
With average 2 persons in a household, the production gives enogh electric energy for ca 12000 households.
Each mill then supports about 200 households.

6000 years ago wind power was harnessed in what now is Iraq.
The simplest part of a windmill are the rotor blades, generator and the shaft. but there are many parts when it comes to wind turbines. hope this helps!
Advantages1. wind to harness electricity2. Environmentally friendly, does not produce green house gasesDisadvantages1. Reliability.The output power of a windmill depends on the speed of the wind.If wind is not strong in the area, the windmill will not generate enough power to grind grain to flour, or, will grind only some grain. Thus building windmills in this type of areas will be useless.2.Noise pollution is also another problem. When rotating, the vanes of the windmill make a considerable amount of noise.3. A lot of resources needed
A windmill cannot give any houses!
1000 homes
The wind should be able to power any size windmill.
Yes, a windmill is an example of harnessing wind power to generate electricity or mechanical power. By capturing the kinetic energy of the wind, windmills can convert it into usable energy for various purposes.
Yes some states use windmill power like California
A windmill works by capturing the kinetic energy of the wind to rotate its blades. As the blades turn, they spin a generator inside the windmill, which converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy. This electricity can then be used to power homes, businesses, or other electrical devices.
A motor is used to power a windmill.
Windmill power generation is an alternative source of power. However, whether it is the right source of power for you will depend on certain factors. Initially it is costly to implement the windmill power source, however, in the end you will reap the benefits of this investment.
There are many requisite for making a household windmill. I have found some important tips at site that is related to Solar power or wind energy. Hope you will get the desired answer.
No
1 How many windmills it takes to power a city depends on the amount and reliability of the wind, the power output of each windmill, and the power requirements of the city.
A windmill does not blow.A windmill is blown by the wind.The windmills sails turn the wind into power to operate machines, pumps or electrical generators.
