Wind power can be exploited by placing a turbine / propeller atop a tall tower in a favorable position. Electricity is produced when the wind moves the propeller and generator power to the propeller. A generator-type wind turbine has a long wind turbine blade, with rather long and narrow leaves. Leaves should be firm and not heavy, and therefore materials such as fiberglass and aluminum. The leaves are very aerodynamic, they generate much spin as possible when the wind passes through them. The amount of energy can be produced depends on the size and propellers. Of course, the wind speed. Wind turbines must be placed in locations where they can operate effectively. Large open field where there is less disruption to the flow of wind and offshore locations are… Read More
