1. Higher wind speeds generate more power because stronger winds allow the blades to rotate faster.
2. noise produced by the rotor blades, aesthetic (visual) impacts, and sometimes birds have been killed by flying into the rotors.
3. wind turbines are connected to the grid through transformers.
4. Pumping water (wind pump)
Milling grain (windmill)
Sailing boats.
Sports, especially water sports: Kiteboarding. Windsurfing. Land surfing. Kite surfing.
Generating electricity (wind turbines) Horizontal-axis turbines. Vertical-axis turbines.
5. accelerate or hinder the deployment of wind turbines, affecting the pace at which countries can reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.
6. longer blades, segmented blades, taller towers, low-specific-power wind turbines, advanced tower manufacturing techniques, and climbing cranes.
7. Offshore wind farms generally have larger turbines, are designed to withstand harsher weather conditions at sea, and are considered more efficient than onshore wind farms due to consistently higher wind speeds and less land-based interference, allowing them to produce more energy per turbine.
