Currently wind is not a viable alternative to our use of fossil fuels. The energy used to build and maintain a wind turbine is greater then what we will ever receive from the systems. Thus wind turbines add to our needed energy requirements.
Wind systems typically deliver about 8 to 10% of what they claim to deliver. This is because they are rated at fairly high wind speeds (25 to 28 mph). If the wind averages 14 mph it will develop less then 10% of the rated output. (Power cubed).
If the wind goes over 31 MPH the system will save itself and shutdown.
To compensate for these issues, power companies build extra fossil fuel systems to backup the wind systems the Government mandates they use. France has been slightly better as they build Nuclear, rather then fossil fueled.
A typical wind generator that claims to feed 300 homes will be close to feeding 30 homes on occasion. The saddest part is that due to wind variations the fossil fuel plant will remain running at all times to back up the wind. This means zero reduction in fossil fuel use and no real power.
wind is a renewable resource
Sodium chloride
Wind is a renewable resource. Oil is not a renewable resource.
Solar energy: The sun continuously produces energy that can be harnessed through solar panels without depleting the source. Wind energy: Wind is a naturally occurring phenomenon that can be converted into electricity using wind turbines, with no limit to its availability. Geothermal energy: The heat produced from within the Earth's core is a source of renewable energy that can be accessed through geothermal power plants.
yes wind is a renewable resource
Yes. Since Wind is generated by Sun energy, it is virtually an inexhaustible resource.
Sodium chloride doesn't burn.
exhaustible, inexaustible and conventional
no it is not
An example of a flow resource is wind or sunlight
Wind is a renewable resource
If you mean energy then you use wind turbines
