Wind Power Renewable energy

Wind Energy the energy available in a moving mass of air. It is pollution-free and cost-competitive

The Wind Energy is harnessed with wind turbines The Wind Energy is harnessed with wind turbines. They are mounted on a tower to capture the most energy

When using this energy in cold climate the conditions directly affect site access, working conditions, technology selection, loads, noise, health and safety, public safety and energy production.

Many people find wind farms an interesting feature of the landscape.

There are reports of bird and bat mortality at wind turbines as there are around other artificial structures. The scale of the ecological impact may or may not be significant, depending on specific circumstances. Prevention and mitigation of wildlife fatalities, and protection of peat bogs affect the siting and operation of wind turbines.

43.6997696% of Germany’s energy is Wind

More than 21,607 wind turbines are located in the German federal area and the country has plans to build more wind turbines.
