Wind energy is a renewable energy source derived from harnessing the kinetic energy of wind. Wind turbines, typically mounted on tall towers, capture the energy from the wind's movement and convert it into electricity through the rotation of turbine blades. This mechanical energy is then transformed into electrical energy by a generator within the turbine. Wind energy is considered clean and sustainable because it produces no greenhouse gas emissions or air pollutants during operation, unlike fossil fuels. It is also abundant and widely available, making it a valuable resource for generating electricity in various locations around the world. Wind energy contributes to reducing reliance on fossil fuels, mitigating climate change, and promoting energy independence.
