Since earliest times windmills have been used to manage water and grind grain. Holland developed windmills to pump water out of low lying lakes and lagoons. Wind power was the main source of energy after wood until the Industrial Revolution and the regular burning of coal.
Windmills have been used to pump water (for agricultural installations, for example) by gearing the windmill shaft to a pump shaft. They have also been used to charge batteries which provide electrical power in rural locations.

What are some uses of windmills?
for energy
What is the traditional form of power in holland?
windmills
What are the two uses of windmills?
Traditionally windmills have been used to grind grain for flour. In some places they pump water, for instance to drain low lying land, which is why the Netherlands became famous for windmills.
What are some types of transportation that uses wind energy?
1. Sailboats 2. Electric cars charged with electricity from windmills
Who uses windmills?
many people in the world do. that's all i know.
What uses energy to from the wind to pump water and grind grains?
Windmills!
How have windmills changed over time?
Windmills have evolved from traditional mechanical devices used for grinding grain or pumping water into modern wind turbines that generate electricity. Advancements in materials, design, and technology have made windmills more efficient, reliable, and cost-effective. Today's windmills are larger, more powerful, and capable of harnessing more energy from the wind.
Why are windmills better for the earth?
Windmills are better for the Earth because they generate electricity from wind, a renewable energy source that does not produce greenhouse gas emissions or air pollutants. Windmills contribute to decreasing our reliance on fossil fuels and help combat climate change by reducing carbon emissions. Additionally, windmills have a low carbon footprint compared to traditional energy sources.
What are some examples of wind energy?
windmills
What is some wind energy examples?

Why did windmills grind materials?
Some windmills were made to grind flour others were made for other purposes.
Do windmills produce electricity?
Different windmills do different things. Some pump water. Others do produce electricity.
