The ultimate energy source for most wind is the sun. Solar radiation heats the Earth's atmosphere, creating temperature differences that drive wind patterns. Wind turbines then convert this kinetic energy into electricity that can be used as a renewable energy source.
The ultimate source for biomass energy is organic matter derived from plants and animals. This can include wood, crop residues, animal waste, and algae. When burned or converted into biofuels, biomass can release energy in the form of heat, electricity, or transportation fuels.
The major energy source for wind is the kinetic energy in the movement of air masses caused by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun. This kinetic energy is converted into mechanical energy that can be harnessed to generate electricity through wind turbines.
The immediate energy source for most waves on the ocean surface is wind. Wind transfers its kinetic energy to the ocean surface waters, causing them to generate waves through frictional interaction.
Yes, wind is a renewable source of energy that can be harnessed to produce electricity through wind turbines. Wind energy is considered clean and sustainable, as it does not produce greenhouse gas emissions during its operation.
The Sun is the first source of most forms of energy. First we have solar photovoltaic - the direct conversion of solar radiation into electricity. Wind is also created by the sun, since solar radiation falling on the earth produces warm and cold regions. The air in a cold region becomes more dense and therefore higher pressure. This higher air pressure causes the wind to blow from the cold region toward the hot region. So wind turbines convert the power from the wind into electricity - but the original source was the sun! The process of producing fossil fuels began millions of years ago, when the sun shone on the trees and grass. These were eventually compressed and converted to coal, oil or gas. Waves happen because of the wind, and so the ultimate source is again, the sun. However tidal power, where a high tide is captured by a barrage and then allowed to flow out through a water turbine, is due to interactions between the gravitational forces of the moon and the sun on the oceans.

The Sun is the ultimate source of all energy on earth.

Wind energy is one of the most eco friendly energy source but is not as efficient as others
Wind energy is the most commonly used alternative energy source in Texas. 79% of all renewable energy generated in Texas in 2006 was wind energy.
Actually, most of our energy comes from wind energy sources, like wind turbines. Wind turbines are used all around the world.
Wind energy is a renewable resource, as there will always be wind.
No, wind is a renewable energy source. The wind will always be blowing!
The ultimate source for biomass energy is organic matter derived from plants and animals. This can include wood, crop residues, animal waste, and algae. When burned or converted into biofuels, biomass can release energy in the form of heat, electricity, or transportation fuels.
