Wind farms consist of many individual wind turbines which are connected to the electric power transmission network. Show More Sentences Onshore wind is an inexpensive source of electric power, competitive with or in many places cheaper than coal or gas plants. A wind farm is a group of wind turbines in the same location used for production of electric power. For example, Gansu Wind Farm, the largest wind farm in the world, has several thousand turbines. This will include power factor, constancy of frequency and dynamic behaviour of the wind farm turbines during a system fault. Offshore wind power refers to the construction of wind farms in large bodies of water to generate electric power. Siemens and Vestas are the leading turbine suppliers for offshore wind power. In 2012, 1,662 turbines at 55 offshore wind farms in 10 European countries produced 18 TWh, enough to power almost five million households. World wind generation capacity more than quadrupled between 2000 and 2006, doubling about every three years. As of 2011, 83 countries around the world were using wind power on a commercial basis. In 2015, close to half of all new wind power was added outside of the traditional markets in Europe and North America. The increased commissioning of wind power is being accompanied by record low prices for forthcoming renewable electric power. In some cases, wind onshore is already the cheapest electric power generation option and costs are continuing to decline. Conversely, a large generator would cost more but generate little extra power and, depending on the type, may stall out at low wind speed. Wind energy penetration is the fraction of energy produced by wind compared with the total generation. This reserve capacity can also serve to compensate for the varying power generation produced by wind stations. Electrical utilities continue to study the effects of large scale penetration of wind generation on system stability and economics. A wind energy penetration figure can be specified for different duration of time, but is often quoted annually. Seasonal industry might then take advantage of high wind and low usage times such as at night when wind output can exceed normal demand. In Australia, the state of South Australia generates around half of the nation's wind power capacity. The variability of wind is quite different from solar, wind may be producing power at night when other baseload plants are often overproducing. Show More Sentences Wind power is variable, and during low wind periods it must be replaced by other power sources. In certain cases the increased predictability can be used to take wind power penetration from 20 to 30 or 40 per cent. On seasonal timescales, solar energy peaks in summer, whereas in many areas wind energy is lower in summer and higher in winter. Thus the seasonal variation of wind and solar power tend to cancel each other somewhat. When the wind is blowing strongly, nearby hydroelectric stations can temporarily hold back their water. When the wind drops they can, provided they have the generation capacity, rapidly increase production to compensate. Stored energy increases the economic value of wind energy since it can be shifted to displace higher cost generation during peak demand periods. In particular geographic regions, peak wind speeds may not coincide with peak demand for electrical power. The price of wind power is therefore much more stable than the volatile prices of fossil fuel sources. An 2012 EU study shows base cost of onshore wind power similar to coal, when subsidies and externalities are disregarded. There are now longer and lighter wind turbine blades, improvements in turbine performance and increased power generation efficiency. Also, wind project capital and maintenance costs have continued to decline. For example, socially responsible manufacturers pay utility companies a premium that goes to subsidize and build new wind power infrastructure. Isolated communities, that may otherwise rely on diesel generators, may use wind turbines as an alternative. The environmental impact of wind power when compared to the environmental impacts of fossil fuels, is relatively minor.

Wind turbine design is the process of defining the form and specifications of a wind turbine to extract energy from the wind. In addition the aerodynamics of a wind turbine at the rotor surface exhibit phenomena that are rarely seen in other aerodynamic fields. Further design factors must also be considered when integrating wind turbines into electrical power grids. Wind turbines for grid electric power therefore need to be especially efficient at greater wind speeds. Unlike 'static' wind speed atlases which give a single average speed across multiple years, tools such as Renewables. The total amount of economically extractable power available from the wind is considerably more than present human power use from all sources. To assess prospective wind power sites a probability distribution function is often fit to the observed wind speed data.

Airborne wind turbine designs have been proposed and developed for many years but have yet to produce significant amounts of energy. Seif dunes are thought to develop from barchans if a change of the usual wind direction occurs. The new wind direction will lead to the development of a new wing and the over development of one of the original wings. If the prevailing wind then becomes dominant for a lengthy period of time the dune will revert to its barchan form, with one exaggerated wing. Show More Sentences The wing will continue to grow under both wind conditions, thus producing a seif dune. In the sheltered troughs between highly developed seif dunes barchans may be formed because the wind is unidirectional. Sand that is transported long distances by water or wind will be rounded, with characteristic abrasion patterns on the grain surface. Planktonic forms in open water usually rely on turbulent mixing of the upper layers by the wind to keep them suspended in sunlit surface waters. Detours may also be caused by differential wind conditions, predation risk, or other factors. Noise levels from operating wind turbines are low and unlikely to affect porpoises, even at close range. Since 2005, the coast off Walney has become a centre for the construction of offshore wind farms. The campaign featured the Robin Rigg offshore wind farm in the Solway Firth, currently in development. Offshore wind power is not a form of marine energy, as wind power is derived from the wind, even if the wind turbines are placed over water. A wind turbine is a device that converts the wind's kinetic energy into electrical energy. The windwheel of Hero of Alexandria marks one of the first recorded instances of wind powering a machine in history. However, the first known practical wind power plants were built in Sistan, an Eastern province of Iran, from the 7th century. Advanced wind turbines were described by Croatian inventor Fausto Veranzio. It was reported to have an annual capacity factor of 32 percent, not much different from current wind machines. Calculation of wind power density includes the effect of wind velocity and air density. Wind turbines are classified by the wind speed they are designed for, from class I to class IV, with A or B referring to the turbulence. Further inefficiencies, such as gearbox losses, generator and converter losses, reduce the power delivered by a wind turbine. Small turbines are pointed by a simple wind vane, while large turbines generally use a wind sensor coupled with a servomotor. In high winds, the blades can also be allowed to bend which reduces their swept area and thus their wind resistance. Additionally, the blades are placed a considerable distance in front of the tower and are sometimes tilted forward into the wind a small amount. Show More Sentences When a turbine is mounted on a rooftop the building generally redirects wind over the roof and this can double the wind speed at the turbine. Wind turbines are designed, using a range of computer modelling techniques, to exploit the wind energy that exists at a location. Currently, digital image correlation and stereophotogrammetry are used to measure dynamics of wind turbine blades. As competition in the wind market increases, companies are seeking ways to draw greater efficiency from their designs. One of the predominant ways wind turbines have gained performance is by increasing rotor diameters, and thus blade length. Direct drive generators and aeroelastic blades for large wind turbines are being researched. And as technology needed for wind turbines continues to improve, the prices will decrease as well. In addition, there is no competitive market for wind energy, as it does not cost money to get ahold of wind. Being environmentally friendly and green is a large advantage of wind turbines. For every bird killed by a wind turbine in the US, nearly 500,000 are killed by each of feral cats and buildings. Turbines can be placed on ridges or bluffs to maximize the access of wind they have, but this also limits the locations where they can be placed. Isallobaric gradients are important components of the wind as they increase or decrease the geostrophic wind. In meteorology, the term isogon refers to a line of constant wind direction. Climate change influences the major wind systems and ocean currents, which also lead to cetacean strandings. On the other hand, especially in the summer it is not unusual that there is the sirocco, the wind from the Sahara. Emperor Michael II caught wind of the matter and ordered general Constantine to end the marriage and cut off Euphemius' head. The Mistral from the northwest is the dominant wind on and off throughout the year, though it is most prevalent in winter and spring. As long as the waves propagate slower than the wind speed just above the waves, there is an energy transfer from the wind to the waves. A given wind speed has a matching practical limit over which time or distance will not produce larger waves. In January 2010, a licence to develop a wind farm on Dogger Bank was granted to Forewind Ltd, a consortium of developers. Show More Sentences Equatorial Kelvin waves are often associated with anomalies in surface wind stress. Oblique incoming wind squeezes water along the coast, and so generates a water current which moves parallel to the coast. Beach sand is also moved on such oblique wind days, due to the swash and backwash of water on the beach. As spits grow, the water behind them is sheltered from wind and waves, and a salt marsh is likely to develop. The main organ for its production is rhizomes, which is dispersed along the shore by wind and water. Powerful wind whips up large, strong waves in the direction of its movement. However, upon entering a shallow, gently sloping shelf, the surge cannot be disperse, but is driven ashore by the wind stresses of the hurricane. When directly generated and affected by local winds, a wind wave system is called a wind sea. All of these factors work together to determine the size of wind waves and the structure of the flow within them. A fully developed sea has the maximum wave size theoretically possible for a wind of a specific strength, duration, and fetch. Since the wind speed profile is logarithmic to the water surface, the curvature has a negative sign at this point. This relation shows the wind flow transferring its kinetic energy to the water surface at their interface. Ripples appear on smooth water when the wind blows, but will die quickly if the wind stops. These waves tend to last much longer, even after the wind has died, and the restoring force that allows them to propagate is gravity. The paths of water molecules in a wind wave are circular only when the wave is traveling in deep water. Waves can also break if the wind grows strong enough to blow the crest off the base of the wave. Internal waves are generated by wind energy, tidal energy, and ocean currents. The storm generated coastal and inland hazards, including flooding, erosion, destruction of coastal defences, and widespread wind damage. On Thursday 15 February, German authorities published the first storm warning for the North Sea with wind speeds up to 9 Beaufort. It is generally possible to dive at the Farnes regardless of wind direction. Show More Sentences In Britain, suitable wind conditions may lead to drift migration, and an influx of birds from the east. The Vikings were experts in judging speed and wind direction, and in knowing the current and when to expect high and low tides. In combat, the variability of wind power made rowing the chief means of propulsion. The dominant winds are the trends in direction of wind with the highest speed over a particular point on the Earth's surface. Highly elevated surfaces can induce a thermal low, which then augments the environmental wind flow. Sand dunes can orient themselves perpendicular to the prevailing wind regime within coastal and desert locations. Presented in a polar coordinate grid, the wind rose shows the frequency of winds blowing from particular directions. The length of each spoke around the circle is related to the frequency that the wind blows from a particular direction per unit time. This results in moisture rich air from the Pacific Ocean to flow from the west, resulting in frequent rainstorms and wind on the coast. In areas where the wind flow is light, sea breezes and land breezes are important factors in a location's prevailing winds. In the Great Plains, wind erosion of agricultural land is a significant problem, and is mainly driven by the prevailing wind. Because of this, wind barrier strips have been developed to minimize this type of erosion. The strips can be in the form of soil ridges, crop strips, crops rows, or trees which act as wind breaks. Offshore wind power refers to the construction of wind farms in bodies of water to generate electricity from wind. Higher wind speeds do not automatically result in increased electricity generation. Wind turbines are limited by the maximum wind speeds their mechanical and electrical components can reliably and durably operate at. In 2015, industry experts were asked about future development of offshore wind power prices. Offshore wind resource characteristics span a range of spatial and temporal scales and field data on external conditions. Because of the previous factors, one of the biggest difficulties with offshore wind farms is the ability to predict loads. Foundations and substructures make up a large fraction of offshore wind systems, and must take into account every single one of these factors. Show More Sentences Some wind farms located far from possible onshore bases have service teams living on site in offshore accommodation units. Reducing this barrier would contribute to the education of engineers specializing in wind energy. Many of the largest operational onshore wind farms are located in China, India, and the United States. Usually sites are screened on the basis of a wind atlas, and validated with wind measurements. Meteorological wind data alone is usually not sufficient for accurate siting of a large wind power project. Collection of site specific data for wind speed and direction is crucial to determining site potential in order to finance the project. Local winds are often monitored for a year or more, and detailed wind maps constructed before wind generators are installed. The wind blows faster at higher altitudes because of the reduced influence of drag. This is done to exploit the topographic acceleration as the wind accelerates over a ridge. The additional wind speeds gained in this way can increase energy produced because more wind goes through the turbines. Offshore wind turbines are less obtrusive than turbines on land, as their apparent size and noise is mitigated by distance. There exist also some wind farms which were mainly built for testing wind turbines. In such wind farms, there is usually from each type to be tested only a single wind turbine. An airborne wind farm is a group of airborne wind energy systems near to each other, connected to the grid in the same point.

By the end of 2008, at least 15 Chinese companies were commercially producing wind turbines and several dozen more were producing components. Leading wind power companies in China were Goldwind, Dongfang Electric, and Sinovel along with most major foreign wind turbine manufacturers. Through all these developments, the Chinese wind industry appeared unaffected by the global financial crisis, according to industry observers. An important limiting factor of wind power is variable power generated by wind farms. Therefore, while it is true that the wind is not blowing everywhere all of the time, it will always be blowing somewhere.
