Wind Energy
You are here:
Overview
Wind energy is a renewable energy source generated by converting the kinetic energy of wind into electricity through wind turbines.
Key Components
- Wind Turbines: Convert wind energy into mechanical power.
- Generator: Transforms mechanical power into electricity.
- Control Systems: Regulate turbine operation based on wind speed.
- Power Grid Integration: Connects generated electricity to the grid.
Benefits
- Sustainable: Wind energy is a clean, renewable resource.
- Cost-Effective: Reduces dependency on fossil fuels.
- Scalable: Can be deployed in various capacities, from small-scale to large wind farms.
Applications
- Offshore wind farms
- Onshore wind power plants
- Hybrid energy systems
