yes they should be heavy... if they weren't heavy the wind would probably blow them over.

What is a cluster of wind turbines called?

A cluster of wind turbines is typically referred to as a wind farm. These wind farms are designed to generate electricity by harnessing the power of the wind through multiple turbines working together in the same location.


How do Darrieus wind turbines differ from Brush wind turbines?

Darrieus wind turbines have a vertical axis and rely on lift forces to spin the blades, while Brush wind turbines have a horizontal axis and capture wind with a larger rotor diameter. Darrieus turbines are typically smaller and better suited for urban environments, while Brush turbines are larger and more efficient for utility-scale applications.


What is it called when several wind turbines are clustered togethered?

A group of wind turbines clustered together is often referred to as a wind farm or wind turbine array. The turbines are strategically placed in close proximity to maximize energy generation from wind resources.


Is wind electrical energy?

Wind is not electrical energy itself, but it can be harnessed to create electrical energy through technologies like wind turbines. Wind turbines use the kinetic energy of the wind to spin turbines, which then generate electricity through a generator.


Compare wind turbines and wave turbines?

Wind turbines use the kinetic energy of wind to generate electricity, while wave turbines harness the energy from ocean waves to produce power. Wind turbines are typically installed on land or offshore in areas with strong winds, while wave turbines are situated in the ocean to capture the motion of waves. Both technologies are considered renewable sources of energy, but wave turbines are less common and still in the early stages of development compared to wind turbines.

Would wind turbines be an option on north pole?

It depends if the people who make the wind turbines use batteries. Because without batteries, wind energy cannot be stored. They would also have to be very heavy duty batteries so that they don't freeze. Most likely wind turbines on the North Pole are not such a good idea
