Environmental / Solutions / Alternative Energy Sources / Wind PowerWind power is obtained via wind farms. While cheap and renewable, the turbines can only be set up in very specific locations (those with strong winds). The turbines are powered by the wind and in turn generate electricity.

Windmills have been used for grinding wheat and grain for thousands of years now. What more for electricity generation today? |
