Indirect solar energy includes hydropower, biomass and wind energy. The air circulates from cold to warm areas producing winds, as the sun heats the earth.
Wind energy is an indirect form of solar energy, as it is generated by the sun's uneven heating of the earth's surface, resulting in changes in air temperature and pressure that create wind movements.
Wind energy is considered an indirect manifestation of solar energy because wind is primarily created by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun. As the sun heats the Earth's surface, different parts of the Earth absorb and release heat at different rates, creating temperature differences and causing air to move, which we experience as wind. This movement of air is harnessed by wind turbines to generate electricity, making wind energy a form of solar energy indirectly converted into usable power.
Hydropower is considered an indirect form of renewable energy because it relies on the water cycle to generate electricity. Solar and wind power are examples of direct renewable energy sources that rely on their respective natural sources for power generation.
Wind energy is indirectly derived from the sun because the uneven heating of the earth's surface by the sun creates wind patterns. As the sun heats the air at different rates, the air moves, creating wind. Therefore, wind energy is often referred to as a form of solar energy.
no because solar is not few wind is for different things that are solar energy ^ is that english? technically i guess... the suns heat changes the air temperature [pressure], the hot and cold molecules displace one another [push against each other] and create 'wind'

Solar Energy
Yes the temperature differences brought about by the exposure of the atmosphere to the sun cause the air to move about. If the sun was not there to do this there would be no wind. the fact is that just about every form of energy that we use has its origin in the sun.

Wind is not a form of Solar Energy. Wind energy in terms of windmills are powered by the wind driving a motor whilst solar involves a more chemical process for Photovoltaic cells, and heating for thermal cells.
Hydropower is considered an indirect form of renewable energy because it relies on the water cycle to generate electricity. Solar and wind power are examples of direct renewable energy sources that rely on their respective natural sources for power generation.
all energy on Earth ultimately comes from the sun.
Solar Energy and wind energy are the energy of the future.

Solar and wind energy are the only 'cheap' energy there.
It's not (unless you mean solar wind which sends charged particles shooting through space where the collide with gas in the Earth's atmosphere to form Auroras). Solar Energy is an example of renewable energy, like wind and water power.
Solar energy is generated by capturing sunlight and converting it into electricity using photovoltaic cells, while wind energy is generated by harnessing the kinetic energy of wind through wind turbines to produce electricity. Solar energy relies on sunlight availability, while wind energy relies on wind speed and consistency. Both types of energy are renewable and clean sources of electricity.
