How many wind turbines replace a coal power station?

The number of wind turbines needed to replace a coal power station depends on the size and capacity of the coal plant, as well as the size and efficiency of the wind turbines. On average, it can take several dozen to hundreds of wind turbines to replace a single coal power station.

Does coal produce more energy than wind turbines?

In terms of energy density, coal produces more energy than wind turbines. Coal-fired power plants generally have a higher capacity factor and can generate electricity continuously, while wind turbines rely on the availability of wind. However, wind energy is a cleaner and more sustainable source of energy compared to coal.
