How Do You Make Electricity From The Wind?
Electricity can be made by using wind to create power. A wind turbine is used to convert wind to electricity. The turbine looks like a fan standing on a pole. Wind spins the blades to operate a generator located inside. Power made by the generator is harnessed and set out for consumption. Wind power is an economical and environmentally friendly source of energy. First, a wind turbine is erected in a flat area known to have blustery days. A turbine works the opposite way a fan does. When the wind comes it turns the blades. Spinning blades are connected to a shaft which begins to turn as the blades go faster. The shaft is attached to a generator made of magnets and copper coils. As the shaft turns, it operates the generator. When the generator spins it creates electricity which can be harnessed and used for powering electrical appliances. The energy that is made by the generator is transmitted through thick, copper coils. These coils usually run underground and are distributed to a subst
