Wind

Wind Farm

Wind energy is a very ancient energy source that uses the kinetic force of the wind to transform it into electricity.
The mechanical energy of the wind, which represents a source of clean and renewable energy, in the past found its maximum application in the nautical sector and powered the blade mechanism of windmills, from which modern wind power plants would derive.
The equipments with which the force of the wind is exploited today are instead called wind turbines, consisting of a wind turbine on top of a support tower and an electric generator that works exactly on the same principle as windmills.
