VIDEO: EVER WONDERED HOW A WIND TURBINE WORKS?


Have you ever wondered how wind-power is converted into electrical energy? 

You’ve probably seen a wind farm; several wind turbines, like the old windmills that move their blades when the air blows. It is a simple process at first glance, but maybe you don’t know what happens inside a turbine to convert wind power into electricity?

The video below will explain the process in detail and how a wind turbine takes a free and inexhaustible natural resource such as the force of the wind and converts that motion into electricity that can power homes, businesses, hospitals, well anything really.

The capacity of wind turbines varies from one model to another. In the case of ACCIONA Windpower, two nominal powers are exploited: 1,500 kW and 3,000 kW. The rated power is generated by the machine when operating at maximum power. 

Today wind power provides almost 3% of global electricity consumptions. Industry expectations indicate that by the end of the decade capacity will double, which shows the confidence of the experts in this type of renewable energy as an engine of tomorrow’s world. Have a look at the video below to see the process in action!
