What are the advantages and disadvantages of wind turbines?

Wind energy offers many advantages, which explains why it's the fastest-growing energy source in the world. Research efforts are aimed at addressing the challenges to greater use of wind energy. Advantages: 1.

Wind energy is fueled by the wind, so it's a clean fuel source. 2. Wind energy doesn't pollute the air like power plants that rely on combustion of fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas.3.

Wind turbines don't produce atmospheric emissions that cause acid rain or greenhouse gasses. 4. Wind energy is a domestic source of energy, produced in the United States.5.

The nation's wind supply is abundant.6. Wind energy relies on the renewable power of the wind, which can't be used up. Wind is actually a form of solar energy; winds are caused by the heating of the atmosphere by the sun, the rotation of the earth, and the earth's surface irregularities.7.

Wind energy is one of the lowest-priced renewable energy technologies available today, costing between 4 and 6 cents per kilowatt-hour, depending upon the wind resource and project financing of the particular project. 8. Wind turbines can be built on farms or ranches, thus benefiting the economy in rural areas, where most of the best wind sites are found.

Farmers and ranchers can continue to work the land because the wind turbines use only a fraction of the land. Wind power plant owners make rent payments to the farmer or rancher for the use of the land. Disadvantages: 1.

Wind power must compete with conventional generation sources on a cost basis. 2. Depending on how energetic a wind site is, the wind farm may or may not be cost competitive.

Even though the cost of wind power has decreased dramatically in the past 10 years, the technology requires a higher initial investment than fossil-fueled generators. 3. The major challenge to using wind as a source of power is that the wi.

The pros- its very clean and helps the enviorment. The cons- its very costly, there has to be a constent wind, doesent produce alot of eletricity.

1. Wind mill is operative only and only where wind flows all the season and and atleast some minimum speed say 15kmph 2. Cost of equipment is too high Advantages Renewable source so no pollution,will not finish and ecofriendly.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
