What are the benefits of wind energy?
Like solar power, a wind energy system is an entirely clean source of power. The only problem and danger associated with wind turbines are the storage batteries. Wind turbines produce no emissions, use no traditional fuel, and can provide reliable year-round power given the right location. Wind generators require relatively little maintenance, but it is recommended that the generator receives annual visual check-ups to ensure the propeller blades haven’t been damaged by debris or birds. If the turbine is located in a good spot, it’s very unlikely to be damaged. However, a damaged blade will decrease the performance of the wind turbine dramatically. Wind turbines are very useful in almost any marine or household electrical system. In marine use, the wind could be generated into power, which could be used on ships. For residential systems, wind power can be a wonderful source of power year-round when energy is scarce. Wind energy can also be configured to power dedicated water pumping sy
