Wind turbines are used to harvest kinetic energy from the wind and transform it into electricity. A rotor, typically with three airfoil blades, rotates using the force of lift. A system of gears is used to increase rotational velocity of the hub to a high-speed shaft which feeds into a generator. The generator then utilizes the rotational energy to generate electricity and deliver it down the tower through a cable. Wind turbines can be assembled on land or water and usually generate energy proportional to their size. | |||
