Like all other weather and climate occurrences on the planet,
wind stems from the sun.
When the sun unevenly heats the
irregular surface of the Earths atmosphere as it rotates, wind
is created.
The motion energy caused by the movement
of air over the Earths terrain is called wind flow.
Wind power uses the Earths atmospheres natural
airflows to produce electricity.
To do so, the wind turbine
blades capture the wind’s kinetic energy, which makes
the rotor spin, creating mechanical energy.
The rotor
turns an internal shaft, which is connected to the gearbox,
which again changes the rotations from low-speed to
high-speed. The high-speed shaft is connected to the
generator, which creates electricity.
Each wind turbine is designed for different wind
conditions, and wind turbines are carefully positioned
based on numerous factors such as average wind
speeds, landscape and turbulence. By choosing the
right location and the right turbine for each site, wind
turbines harness energy in the most efficient way.
Once generated by the wind turbine, the electricity is
transmitted through underground cables called the
transmission line to a grid substation where the voltage
is adapted and connected to the grid. From there, the
electricity travels through cables into our homes.
How does it all work?
