Wind
Energy is a form of renewable
energy - a transformed form of energy, replenished by the sun everyday.
This transformation takes place when our EARTH receives
SUNLIGHT from the
SUN in the day time. As the Earths crust gets heated warm Air rises
upwards and
cool Air from surroundings rushes in.
Why
does this happen when the surroundings also receive sunlight??
Good
Question.
Because our
EARTH is
not FLAT it is ROUND and always rotating on its axis from west to east.
Continuously
some parts are getting in the SUNLIT area and some are going out. As a
result
at one place temperature is on rise but at the same time at other place
temperature is reducing. Further at different places the SUN RAYS are
striking
the EARTH'S crust at different angles and absorbed at different rates
giving
uneven temperature rise. This difference in temperature give rise to
WIND which
is available for free for us to use for our benefits.

Benefits
of Generating Energy using Wind Generators
Reduces
climate change and other environmental
pollution.
Wind energy can be utilized
as a shield against
ever increasing power prices. The cost per KWH reduces over a
period of
time as against rising cost for conventional power projects.
Diversifies
energy supply, eliminates imported
fuels, provides hedge against the price volatility of fossil fuels,
thereby
provides energy security and prevention of conflict over natural
resources.
One of
the cheapest source of electrical
energy.
Least equity
participation required, as well as
low cost debt is easily available to wind energy projects.
A
project with fastest payback period.
A real fast
track power project with lowest
gestation period
A Modular
Concept. Operation and maintenance cost are very low.
Minimum
marketing risk as the products is
electrical energy.
Creates
employment, regional growth and
innovation.
Reduces
poverty through improved energy access.
Fuel sources
is free, abundant and inexhaustible.
Wind generators deliver
utility-scale
power supply.
