Turbines don't produce energy. They convert combustion from burning gas or water flow. A turbine is just a device with a lot of blades that convert water flow or gas flow to rotation. This rotation then turns an electrical generator, interfaces with a power take off unit, or provides jet thrust.

How can wind and flowing water produce electricity?

Wind and flowing water can produce electricity through turbines. In the case of wind energy, wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical power that drives a generator to produce electricity. With flowing water, hydroelectric turbines are used to convert the potential energy of the moving water into electricity.


What does saving electricity do to the planet?

In order to produce electrical energy, it has to be generated. The most popular way to produce energy is using fossil fuels or in some cases nuclear energy, though there is a slow transition from hazardous and polluting materials to clean energy such as wind turbines, water turbines and solar energy.
