Wind Power

Wind Power is a very valuable source. It helps keep our earth clean. Hopefully, one day we will only use this source of energy.

Then you have to set up the unit,

The Production of Power from Wind Energy

You first have to find a nice flat piece of land,
After that you let the wind hit it and it will turn the axel and this will make the generator turn as well,
The generator will send power through the power lines at a nice rate!


Advantages of Wind Power

Disadvantages of Wind Power
  • It doesn't use valuable resources
  • If there wasn't very much wind that day, you wouldn't get much power.
  • If you have a horizontal wind mill, then you need a way to have the propellers face the wind.
    • You need a lot of wind mills to have a lot of power
  • It will never run out!
    		•
  • You have to have a flat area of land.
    • There is one wind power plant in Prince Edward Island, it is at West Point. All around P.E.I, people can pay like $2.00 more and get wind power so that it will help our earth! There is also one in British Columbia, there it is Pretty windy there so they get a lot of energy. There is one place there that only uses wind power!
