It produced enough electricity to power his holiday home and a surplus which he offered to the locals to power their street lights but they refused saying "Electricity was the work of the devil".
Professor James Blyth built the first windmill for electricity production in 1887 in Glasgow, Scotland. He harnessed the wind power and charged accumulators, which in turn were used to power his holiday cottage. He later built a similar design to power an asylum in Montrose.
The power output of a wind turbine can vary depending on its size and wind conditions, but on average, a single turbine can produce between 2 to 3 megawatts of electricity.
In a nuclear power plant, the turbine is turned by steam produced by the heat generated from nuclear fission in the reactor core. The steam drives the turbine which then rotates a generator to produce electricity.

A nuclear power plant does not directly provide the energy to spin a turbine. In a nuclear power plant, nuclear fission generates heat, which is then used to produce steam that spins a turbine to generate electricity.
The earliest wind turbine was built in July 1887 by Scottish electrical engineer, Professor James Blyth in the garden of his holiday cottage in Marykirk. Blyth used the electricity it produced to charge accumulators; the stored electricity was used to power the lights in his cottage. Some months later, in the winter of 1887, American, Charles F. Brush built the first automatically operated wind turbine to power his farm in Ohio.See:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Blyth_%28engineer%29He invented it so that he could save elecricity in his cottage in 1887
The maximum power of a Kaplan Turbine is about 230MW
Blyth Power Station ended in 2001.
Blyth Power Station was created in 1958.

How much steam is required to produce 5 MW power in steam turbine?In fully condensing turbine we will need 20 TPH steam required to generate for 5MW
The power output of a wind turbine can vary depending on its size and wind conditions, but on average, a single turbine can produce between 2 to 3 megawatts of electricity.
one wind turbine can produce enough energy to power 10000 houses with the right amount of wind.

They both produce electricity
