Wind turbines are devices that convert the wind''s kinetic energy into electrical power. The result of over a millennium of windmill development and modern engineering, today''s wind turbines are manufactured in a wide range of horizontal axis and vertical axis types. The smallest turbines are used for applications such as battery charging for auxiliary power. Slightly larger turbine
There are two primary types of wind turbines used in implementation of wind energy systems: horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) and vertical-axis wind turbines
Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan—wind turbines use wind to make electricity. Wind turns
