In most cases the windmill generator and/or solar power system will be connected to a bank of deep cell batteries.

This enables you to store the electricity generated to use when you need it or at times of low wind/solar output.

In larger systems, these sources are connected to fossil fuel plants that idle until the demand is asked of them. The fossil fuel plants energy is not considered in the overall production of Green Houses gases, even though they run. Wind Systems produce roughly 8 to 10% of rated power when running and run roughly 50% of the time. Overall, most wind and solar systems are not capable of producing the energy it required to build them. That means they are costing energy and produce zero carbon emission reductions. In fact, they increase the overall production when you factor in what it took to build the system and the CO2 from plants that idle to make up for wind and solar variations. It just feels good, and that is important.

What is a region where many windmills are located in order to generate electricity from wind called?

A region where many windmills are located to generate electricity from wind is commonly referred to as a wind farm or a wind power plant. These sites are strategically chosen based on wind patterns and suitable conditions for wind energy generation.


What are the functions of the windmill?

Windmills are used to convert wind energy into mechanical power or electricity. They have historically been used for activities such as grinding grains, pumping water, or generating electricity. Modern windmills are primarily used to produce renewable energy as a clean alternative to fossil fuels.


How does windmill help us?

the wind turns the windmill blades, which turn an electrical generator (ac or dc) which makes electricity. normally power stations turn generators with steam made by boiling water with coal or gas or wood or oil etc. - these fuels are used up when burnt and cause pollution. normal fuel is expensive, difficult to get in bulk and are running out. Wind does not create pollution (although making windmills does) and does not run out


What is non thermal method of generating electricity?

One non-thermal method of generating electricity is through photovoltaic (solar) cells. These cells convert sunlight directly into electrical energy using semiconducting materials. Another method is through piezoelectric materials, which generate electricity when mechanical stress is applied, such as vibrations or pressure.


How does wind produce energy?

Most commonly through windmills. the wind pushes on a tilted blade causing it to rotate. A generator inside the windmill then truns the kinetic energy of the rotation into an electric current.u blow on it

Why are windmills important?

Windmills are important because they provide electricity. The more the windmills move, the more electricity. If you go to Palm Springs in California, you will find hundreds and hundreds of windmills, because it is a windy place. Hope this helped.

Do windmills make wind?

No. Windmills use the wind for various puposes such as grinding grain, pumping water, and generating electricity.


Windmills produce electricity by using what source of energy?

Windmills produce electricity by harnessing the kinetic energy of the wind. The wind causes the blades of the windmill to rotate, which in turn drives a generator to produce electricity.
