Turbines actually make the electricity wind, water, and other recources do the work of turning the generators to produce the electricity.

The figure likely shows a wind turbine generating electricity from wind energy.


How wind energy works?

A wind turbine works the opposite of a fan. Instead of using electricity to make wind, a turbine uses wind to make electricity. The wind turns the blades, which spin a shaft, which connects to a generator and makes electricity. The electricity is sent through transmission and distribution lines to a substation, then on to homes, business and schools.

Why does wind generate electricity?

Wind itself does not generate electricity, but using wind turbines it is converted into mechanical energy and the mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy. "Simply stated, a wind turbine works the opposite of a fan. Instead of using electricity to make wind, like a fan, wind turbines use wind to make electricity. The wind turns the blades, which spin a shaft, which connects to a generator and makes electricity. Take a look inside a wind turbine to see the various parts. View the wind turbine animation to see how a wind turbine works."


Is a wind turbine able to make electricity if the wind is not blowing?

No, it only works when the wind is blowing. This is why renewable energy is best with a mix of resources. Solar energy, hydro power and wind are three that together can supply constant power.


One problem with wind energy as a major source of electricity is?

The problem with wind energy is that it does not produce much electricity. Wind does not flow at all places. So having wind energy as a major source of electricity is not a option.


What wind electricity with wind power?

A generator or alternator that is turned by the wind turbine mechanism. Most power generation systems make electricity by turning generators or alternators (one exception is solar which is direct light to electricity conversion).


What are the white fans that make electricity called?

The white fans that make electricity are called wind turbines. Wind turbines are devices that convert the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy through the use of rotating blades. When the wind blows, it causes the blades to spin, which in turn drives a generator to produce electricity. Wind turbines are commonly used to generate renewable energy from wind power.
