The amount of energy produced by electrical energy depends on the source of the electricity. For example, a wind turbine or solar panel will produce a certain amount of energy based on their capacity and efficiency. The energy produced can be calculated in kilowatt-hours (kWh) or joules, depending on the context.
Windmills are large in order to capture as much wind energy as possible. The larger the windmill blades, the more wind they can catch and convert into rotational energy to generate electricity. A large size also helps in producing more energy efficiently, making wind energy a cost-effective renewable energy source.
Wind itself is a natural phenomenon and cannot be created. However, generating electricity using wind turbines involves costs related to installing and maintaining the turbines, as well as infrastructure like transmission lines. The cost of wind energy varies depending on factors such as location, size of the wind farm, and government incentives.
The high cost of wind energy can be attributed to several factors, including the initial investment required for the construction of wind turbines and transmission infrastructure, the intermittency of wind as a power source requiring additional backup power generation or energy storage systems, and challenges associated with integrating wind farms into existing power grids. Additionally, factors such as maintenance and operation costs, land acquisition, and regulatory requirements can also contribute to the overall cost of wind energy.
Yes, the cost of wind energy has become competitive with traditional forms of electricity generation like coal and natural gas in many regions. Additionally, the cost of wind energy has been decreasing over time due to advancements in technology and economies of scale, making it a cost-effective option for generating electricity.
Wind energy costs 5million a year
£10,234 to be exact.
See the entry on Satielites.Wind energy is very efficient (makes money) when the wind is blowing but when it stops, it's all overhead.This means it cost too much.
So far it is free because wind is a renewable energy source but you have to count the turbine and generator and everything that produces the electricity.

This is a question of how much electrical energy you want to produce, against the cost of the equipment to produce it.
5 cents per kilowatt hour
wind energy is free
It has not progressed much in terms of cost effectiveness. It still uses more energy to fabricate, put together and maintain a wind turbine than it will produce in ten years.
Around 2% of energy consumption is wind energy.
Around 2% of energy consumption is wind energy.
Not as Much as Wind, Because Solar Panels Cost More Than Wind Turbines , If the Two Create The Same Amount Of Energy The Solar Would Have Costed More to produce the Panels.
