Windmills

The turbines (mills) themselves are non-renewable but the wind the power source that is converted into useful work (usually electricity) is renewable.

snowball is blamed for the windmills

Windmills extract energy from the wind whenever the wind is blowing.

Day or night, Summer or Winter.

As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, there are approximately 2,000 wind turbines in the Columbia River Gorge area, primarily located in the surrounding regions of Oregon and Washington. These windmills are part of various wind farms that harness the area's strong wind resources for renewable energy production. The exact number can vary due to new installations or decommissioning of older turbines, so it's advisable to check local resources for the most current information.

Naw man. They need wind.

Green energy is the idea.

But to be honest, not much power is produced from each wind turbine, so they don't really help very much, that's why you need SO many of them. For instance a typical power station would be 2000 MW, a typical wind turbine is 2 MW. A typical power station could operate at 100% output for 90% of the time. A typical wind turbine operates at 50% output but is only operating for 50% of the time (when the wind is acceptable). So on average the power station can produce 1800MW whereas the wind turbine is about 0.5 MW.

Windmills are usually located in hilly areas.

Windmills harness wind power, and were originally used for grinding grain. Today, the wind energy is converted into electricity by turbine generators.

it helped people in the olden days.

Solar windmills, also known as wind turbines, generate electricity by using the kinetic energy of the wind to rotate the blades. As the blades turn, they spin a generator that produces electrical current. This current is then converted into usable electricity for homes, businesses, and communities.

Windmills were primarily used in the past for grinding grain, pumping water, and generating energy for various agricultural and industrial tasks. They harnessed wind energy to perform mechanical work, making them essential for rural economies before the advent of fossil fuels and electricity. By converting wind into usable power, windmills significantly improved efficiency and productivity in farming and other manual labor.

The number of operational windmills can vary widely depending on the region and the specific time frame. As of 2023, there are over 400,000 wind turbines installed globally, generating significant renewable energy. For precise, up-to-date figures, it's best to consult resources like the Global Wind Energy Council or local energy authorities.

wind mill, circut

Yes it did changes life in Europe. This machine reduced animal power and things were done faster.

There is one farm at Muppandal.

There are plans for the Palani Hills; Kambam Pass , Dindigul district;

There are numerous plans for small (one or a few) wind turbines.

They were built because the windmill allowed the farmers and their families to have electric lights and radio.

It is quite a simple answer, and only bottom set would probably not know this but the syllables of windmill is two. Wind-mill!

By capturing the power of the wind as it passes the windmill's sails. This causes the sails to turn, which rotates the sails axle and this, through gears and cogs, powers the pump or the grind stones.

William kamkwamba is the inventor of the windmill.

A group of windmills is called a Wind farm.
