So we all know why wind power should be used and what it CAN be used for. But what I want to know is what is it being used for now?
What I mean is, where in the world are machinery like wind turbines being used and what are they powering.
There’s some in California. Quite a few. Wind doesn’t usually generate a whole lot of power….
"…used directly to propel sailing ships or converted into mechanical energy for pumping water or grinding grain, but the principal application of wind power today is the generation of electricity."
