Basic information: Wind power generation is to convert kinetic energy of wind into electric energy.

As a clean and renewable energy, wind energy has attracted more and more attention from all countries in the world. It is huge, and the global wind energy is about 2.74× 10.9mw9mw, of which the available wind energy is 2×10.7mw, which is10 times larger than the total amount of water energy that can be developed and utilized on the earth.

Wind has long been used by people-mainly through windmills to pump water and grind noodles. Now, people are interested in how to use wind power to generate electricity.

Resources:

China is rich in wind energy resources, and the exploitable wind energy reserves are about 654.38+0 billion kW, of which the onshore wind energy reserves are about 253 million kW (calculated by the data of land height 10m), and the offshore wind energy reserves are about 750 million kW, accounting for 654.38+0 billion kW. By the end of 2003, the national installed capacity was about 567 million kilowatts.

Wind is one of the pollution-free energy sources. And it is inexhaustible. For coastal islands, grassland and pastoral areas, mountainous areas and plateau areas with water and oil shortage and inconvenient transportation, it is very suitable and promising to use wind power according to local conditions.

Use:

Wind energy is a new energy source with great potential. /kloc-At the beginning of the 0/8th century, a fierce gale swept through Britain and France, destroying 400 windmills, 800 houses, 100 churches and more than 400 sailboats, injuring thousands of people and uprooting 250,000 trees. In terms of uprooting trees, the wind generated10 million horsepower (7.5 million kilowatts; One horsepower equals 0.75 kW)! It is estimated that the wind resources available for power generation on the earth are about 6543.8+000 billion kilowatts, which is almost 6543.8+00 times of the current hydropower generation in the world. At present, the energy obtained by burning coal every year in the world is only one-third of that provided by wind power in one year. Therefore, both at home and abroad attach great importance to the use of wind power generation and the development of new energy.
