20. Functioning of a windmill Isolated working method In isolated working method the energy doesn’t goes in the national electric network. The produced electricity is used only locally. Such a places are not connected to national electric network. In e.g.: farms, hunter cottage, workshops. Intake working method The produced electricity is intaken to the national electric network or to the local electric distributor network. The electric Power Co. pays for the so produced electricity.

23. At it’s simplest, the wind turns the turbine’s blades, which spin a shaft connected to a generator that makes electricity. Large turbines are grouped together to form a wind power plant, which feeds electricity to the grid. Schematic of Wind Plant
