How wind power is used
![Page 6: Tya Hyde Duane Hewins, Jr.. Wind power is….. Converting wind energy to some form of energy Example electrical energy](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551b0a045503462e578b5727/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Cost of using wind powerCommercial-scale turbines are at least $3.5
Million to be installedSmaller/residential scale turbines
Overall lesserMore expensive per kilowatt If its under 100 kilowatts cost about $3,000 to
$5,000 per kilowatt Which means a 10 kilowatt machine (the size
needed to power an average home) might cost $35,000-$50,000.

Continue…..The government gives you some of your
money back as a tax credit.There is an installation fee
Installation costs ranges up to $12,000.No monthly fee

Wind power is easily renewed by…
Building TurbinesWindmills
No use of fossil fuels These are renewable because
power is generated when the wind blowswhen the wind doesn't blow power is not
generated.

Wind Energy is gathered/created When the sun unevenly heats up the earth.
Most of the time its by using large wind turbines

Wind energy is stored by… Battery
Compressed air

The science be hide wind power…Is the generation of electricity…
by spinning copper wires in magnetic fields and electric power generation, that stores or transmits the power by batteries or some other type of source to transmit them to the place of use.

The waste by-products of wind powerThere are no waste by products in less you
was to say…Generation equipment
Manufacture Transportation Installation Maintenance Removal/Disposal

Why isn't wind power widespeading
ExpensivenessSome places aren't suitable

Wind power becoming easily accessible to the public
Its already accessible.But we are just know getting more into
the “Green”

What Is What?The basic Structure is to have…1. Blade2. Hub3. Generator4. Gearbox5. Tail6. Tower
Tail

1. By slowing down the speed of the wind.
2. The wind flows over blades causing them to turn.
3. The blades are connected to a drive shaft that turns an electric generator to produce electricity.
