The U.S should send someone to time travel back to the past to decrease the release of harmful gases into the atmosphere and investing in renewable ones. Even though time travel is not possible, when it is, this idea should seriously be considered. Renewable resources are always readily available, including hydropower, wind power, solar power, geothermal power and biomass. The use of fossil fuels in theU.S is too much and needs to be reduced (Stanford 2016). There are many renewable energy sources that we could switch to. Hydropower and Wind power are some of the easiest and renewable resources ever. However Wind power is one of the most cost-renewable resources and therefore should be a choice that people should use. Wind Power should have been harnessed and used widely many years ago. This is why traveling back in time to support the using of wind power. After traveling back in time, I have decided that wind energy is the way to go. The world should use wind power, to decrease the very dramatic effects of global warming that have happened in about 2000 years. Wind power should be used because it is abundant because wind is everywhere and also it releases no harmful greenhouse gases into the atmosphere like most fossil fuels. Also by investing in wind power, it creates jobs for people, getting the supplies, building, and maintained the wind power plant (Energy Gov 2016). Finally, wind power can also help you save money because after making the wind turbine, little to no
The main purpose of the wind energy is to create energy source which is pollution free and come with a reasonable price. The wind energy used in wind turbines are increasing their demand and becoming popular in the green energy world. Since the rebirth or rapid growth of wind energy took place from early 1980. The growth of the industry has been more than expectations. As all the good things the wind energy poses certain negative impacts of having high maintainer cost. Repair and data collection should be monitored regularly of the turbine to get the idea of placing a new wind energy plant or to maintain the old one. This paper explains the modeling of Wind Energy Conversion Systems and their technologies which is used for the generation of wind power and control strategies of the conversion system.
controversial as to whether or not the farms provide a beneficial source of jobs. There are some people who argue that the wind farms are beneficial to the economy by providing jobs, but there are also some people who feel that the wind farms are not beneficial to the economy. In Nancy Fol
“The relationship between renewable energy sources and the communities we expect to host them must be appropriate and sustainable and, above all, acceptable to local people.” (Owen Paterson). This should be remembered as the world takes its turn toward more renewable energy sources. There is no point in making our industrialization of the world more environmentally friendly on paper if the world isn’t safe for the animals, or livable for the humans. So as wind energy forges on, the industry should be reminded of its problems and should not forget about the way the world should be in their attempt to save it. The development of wind energy is a prime example of this situation. While wind energy may have its fair share of problems and drawbacks, it is still one of the best ways to produce clean, green energy.
We are facing an energy crisis on Earth. Burning fossil fuels are harming the atmosphere; this global warming and affects produces chemicals that hurt our body. People are starting to think about using alternative energy. Wind power would be our first choice, because it’s clean, inexhaustible and renewable. Today, wind power is mainly used in Europe. We believed wind power would be the main source of alternative energy for world use.

One problem with wind energy is its consistency. Wind speeds are constantly changing. There isn’t a way for wind energy to meet human’s needs one hundred percent of the time unless
As the harmful side effects of fossil fuel burning become evermore recognized, the use of clean, renewable technology becomes essential to our health, economy and environment. Petroleum and coal emit harmful pollutants into the atmosphere, contributing to global warming, acid rain and a host of other aliments. Equally concerning is the dependence of the economy on a finite resource such as oil. With world energy consumption rapidly rising, demand is increasing for renewable energy sources that have no significant health impact or environmental degradation. Of all these so called “green” energy sources, wind power has been the most widely used. Wind power is based on the same principals as windmills used for centuries; wind turbines harness
Fossil fuels are having great impacts toward nature such as global warming and greenhouse effect. Plus, the depletion of it contributes to the rising price of petroleum. Therefore, wind power rise as it is a source of clean, non-polluting renewable energy (Nash, 2008). This type of energy generation provides us with loads of benefits environmentally and economically.
Wind force is still the most encouraging renewable energy in the year of 2013. The wind turbine system (WTS) began with a few tens of kilowatt power in the 1980s. Now, multi megawatt wind turbines are widely installed even up to 6–8 MW. There is a widespread use of wind turbines in the distribution networks and more and more wind power stations, acting as power plants, are connected directly to the transmission networks. As the grid penetration and power level of the wind turbines increase steadily, the wind power starts to have significant impacts to the power grid system. Therefore, more advanced generators, power electronic systems, and control solutions have to be introduced to improve the characteristics of the wind power plant and make it more suitable to be integrated into the power grid. Meanwhile, there are also some emerging technology challenges, which need to be further clarified and investigated. The global electrical energy consumption is still rising and there is a steady demand to increase the power capacity. The production, distribution and the use of the energy should be as technological efficient as possible and incentives to save energy at the end-user should be set up. The deregulation of energy has lowered the investment in larger power plants, which means the need for new electrical power sources may be very high in the near future. Two major technologies will play important roles to solve the future problems.
Nowday, we use the fossil fuels for many things. Fossil fuels are the fossils of plants and animals that died. We need fossil fuels for electricities, cooking, and even shampoo we use every day. The most common fossil fuels was coal, oil, and gases, but now scientist estimated that after 150 years, we will be running out of fossil fuels. Another fact was that the digging up the fossil fuels create a huge amount of pollution, and it really harms the environment.The best solution was using the wind power as our energy. Wind power is electricity that is powered by the windmill, this power is renewable, and sustainable, which means that it would be always able to get electricity from it unless there aren’t any wind. The wind power worked
A Wind power is delivered by utilizing wind generators to bridle the active vitality of wind. The kinetic energy of wind is utilized to produce power. The wind power is a renewable vitality and in present days it is a great deal more utilized as a part of developing countries. Solar cell, or photovoltaic cell, is an electrical component that changes over the energy of light straightforwardly into power by the photovoltaic impact. It is a type of photoelectric cell, characterized as a unit whose electrical attributes, for example, current, voltage, or resistance, change when presented to light. Solar cells are the building pieces of photovoltaic modules, also called solar panels. As should be obvious from the over two primary points of wind power
As it can be seen, wind energy has helped Malawi in many ways but, what would the outcome have been if William had found a book containing another renewable energy source? Would it have been nuclear or hydroelectricity (which is used in Malawi but isn’t very effective)? Would he have found a text covering geothermal energy, rendered useless in this region and give up? Nevertheless, these mysteries will never be solved, although another with the possibility of being solved shows its face. What is another renewable energy source Malawi could use besides wind energy? Solar energy. Along with the wind energy in Wimbe it is briefly stated that solar energy is also being used as well (287). What if Malawi switched over to purely solar energy? How would people benefit this change? To decipher these intricate questions one must delve into solar energy in and of itself. Solar energy is an alternate energy source (much like wind energy) which collects solar radiation (radiation- is a form of energy transfer, instead of direct contact like conduction, radiation transfigures energy through electromagnetic waves) and converts it into useable electricity (“Advantages”). Why solar energy for this remote, poor nation? Compared to the present energy source (hydroelectricity) and wind energy it has many advantages. Unlike windmills, solar panels have multiple uses; for one, the most obvious one, it provides electricity, additionally, solar panels can provide heat (“Advantages”). Although,
Global warming has turned itself into a global issue. While turning back the clock is impossible, slowing down the accelerated effects of global warming is not. Reducing our carbon emissions and our carbon footprint will greatly reduce the stress we have placed on the world’s ecosystems. Renewable energy has become an ever increasing important solution, but that does not mean that any kind of renewable energy is the outright solution. Wind farms have the capability of producing large amounts of power, but it has several glaring drawbacks including cost, space efficiency, noise, and wind. These huge wind farms do nothing if the wind is not blowing, which is a huge problem. The turbines are so loud that no one can live nearby, forcing these farms to be placed on farmground or hills, away from everyone. Pouring millions of dollars into a massive wind farm takes a large portion of land for turbines that may only turn half the time. While wind power may not be the energy solution of the future, hydropower just might be. Hydropower is not without its drawbacks, though. Huge dams cost millions of dollars, and the reservoirs they create can destroy acres upon acres of land. This was a major concern when the Shasta Dam was built, as it destroyed much of the sacred land of the Winnemem Tribe during World War II. According to Winnemem Wintu, “The Winnemem not only lost our villages on the McCloud River when the Shasta Dam was erected during WWII, we also lost many of our sacred places
Looking forward that wind energy has many environmental benefits when is compared to fossil energy, because there are a lot of arguments that have been exposed by the researchers to criticist and empiricist between each energy source like wind and fossil energies. However the fossil fuel energy until today it still remains the most useful production to run electricity for different types of industries’. Although wind energy source suggest that it will be easier to implement and manage rather than fossil fuel. Wind energy will also reduce the impacts of lowering the infrastructure and the land use of the planet earth. This paper will expose a researched argumentative so that can be compare and contrast an arguments from the past literature. This arguments will expose by the researchers to examine the successful implement of wind energy in the United States by increasing the economic growth and decreasing the safe of the environment.
Recently, wind power has gained greater attention with respect to sources of renewable energy due to the maturity of the technology and its relative cost competitiveness. Wind power farms (WPFs) are scattered in remote areas (onshore and offshore) selected by the wind speed, water depth, and distance to shore. It is important to develop technology to monitor WPFs with higher capacities as the size and number of wind turbines in a WPF is continuously increasing. In order to provide real-time control and monitoring, reliable bi-directional communication infrastructure is needed. According to their needs, most turbine manufacturers have developed their own monitoring and control systems due to an absence
