There are lots of wind turbines on the coast because the is lots of wind and if its high there is stronger wind higher up.
Wind farms are often built on hilltops because wind speeds tend to be higher at higher elevations. This allows wind turbines to generate more electricity efficiently. Additionally, placing wind farms on hilltops helps to maximize the exposure of the turbines to prevailing winds.
Wind farms are typically large in order to harness more wind energy and generate more electricity. By having a greater number of wind turbines spread over a wider area, wind farms can capture more wind, which leads to higher energy production. Additionally, building larger wind farms can also help reduce the overall cost of generating electricity from wind power.
Wind farms can be anywhere, not just near the sea. Many may be positioned near beaches because of the strong winds coming off the sea. However, in Australia, for example, most wind farms are positioned on hills or in the mountains, where high winds are generated by the topography of the countryside.
Offshore wind farms produce energy which is virtually emission free. After the initial expense of purchasing the wind farms, there are minimal costs involved in producing energy. Many people are opposed to offshore wind farms as they can ruin the view of the ocean and may cause noise.
There is no evidence to suggest that tornadoes are more prevalent near wind farms. Tornadoes are formed by specific atmospheric conditions such as warm, moist air interacting with cold, dry air, whereas wind farms are designed to harness wind energy and do not influence tornado formation.
The majority of wind farms are currently placed an high lands or offshore

Two large wind turbine farms are - Blue Canyon Wind Farm near Lawton, OK - Red Hills Wind Farm near Elk City, OK
Wind farms were invented in Persia.
wind farms are built to produce electricity through wind power
wind farms provide electricity. Wind farms cost more to maintain and construct than the energy that they provide. In addition they very inefficient because they only work when there is wind.
Wind turbines in large farms are usually situated in one of three places: Offshore - Huge wind-farms which can make use of the raw ocean winds Countryside - Usually on top of hills or at the bottom of valleys to make use of the wind rolling over the hills On buildings - Smaller scale and can be used to power perhaps only just the building it is on, and in particularly strong weather conditions, can feed back into the power grid
There are many wind farms in the world. Every country has its own set of wind farms. There is no such list for all the wind farms in the world. However you can go through the list of Top 10 Biggest Wind Farms in the world in the given link. http://www.power-technology.com/features/feature-biggest-wind-farms-in-the-world-texas/
