Advantages:
· Wind energy is friendly to the surrounding environment, as no fossil fuels are burnt to generate electricity fromwind energy.
· Wind turbines take up less space than the average power station. Windmills only have to occupy a few square meters for the base, this allows the land around the turbine to be used formany purposes, for example agriculture.
· Newer technologies are making the extraction of wind energy much more efficient. The wind is free, and we are able to cash in on this free source of energy....
