Introduction In this essay you will read about wind energy as a source of energy. My questions are: "Why is wind energy considered good?" and “do wind turbines have a future in Eskilstuna?” Facts Wind is a renewable and clean energy source, and it is the renewable energy source that has been most popular in recent years and therefore has increased the most that will not run out in the future relevant to humans, all sources of renewable energy obtain energy from the sun except tidal energy which is influenced by the gravitational pull of the moon In wind turbines the energy is converted into electricity by transferring the power generated by the wings of the wind turbines to a generator In order for the wind turbine to be able To produce electricity, a wind speed of between 4 and 25 meters per second is required. If the wind speed exceeds 25 meters per second, the wind turbine is turned off to avoid damage. At the end of 2011, wind energy accounted for only 4.2% of all Swedish electricity production, and at the time Sweden only had 2,000 wind turbines. Most types of wind turbines produced the same amount of energy needed to produce it in 7-8 months. Why is wind energy considered good? in a relatively short time the energy necessary to produce it is returned. Wind turbines also do not emit polluting gases that harm nature in any way Conditions for wind turbines in Eskilstuna According to the municipality of Eskilstuna, wind turbines have good conditions in Eskilstuna now there are no wind turbines in the municipality of Eskilstuna, but they have been several building permits granted. At the moment until...... middle of paper ......It is not possible to build too close to residential areas like there. Often there are too many people who resist. Wind is needed to produce electricity, so it is not always possible to use it. Many don't want them in sight because they are "ugly" and ruin the landscape. Birds and bats are harmed by the wings of electricity. wind turbines. In one year, around 5,000 birds die from Swedish wind turbines. It is often said that wind turbines have annoying noise and therefore cannot be placed near residential areas. Wind energy creates jobs Sources: http://www.energikunskap.se/sv/.
