I have to do a project on wind energy...

Only if its at point of use.. house or business.. 7% of all electricity produced in the US BY ANY MEANS is lost in transmission. ITS CALLED RESISTANCE.. The Grid Itself is a major problem to centralize power and push it around a lossy, leaky, grid system is so wasteful. 7% Read a Book. - Only if its hybrid wind/solar design.. There's no wind in june/july/august. Generate it where it gets used right at the home or business and balance wind/solar and yes, hell yeah, its worth it.

Centralized wind or solar or any power centralized is not the future. Distributed generation is like the internet for electricity. THAT is the future. These giant utility/govt waste projects that benefit nobody is not the future, that is old news people. Get Your Own power.

thanks guys you really helped me :-) hope you keep it up

u should go In Netherlands

These guy's missed so much. 1 If wind power is free why to the turbine operators demand 3 or 4 times normal hydro rates for their power. 2 No mention that wind power farms have to be backed up by conventional power plants to general power when there is no wind, you are paying twice. 3 the health issues are not just birds and bats, its people, wild life, in fact everything living in the vicinity of these things. 4 these wind towers are massive construction sites that will leave massive negative environmental footprints for ever. Such a shame these to guys could not take long enough to come up with a balanced view.

I worked for a company that creates the filters for the hydraulic. The filter was roughly 6 inches tall.

They showed this video in my technology class😊 When they started the video I was like: MIIIIIITTTCCCHHH!!!! GRRRREEEEEGGG!!!! AAAAAHHHH!

0:55 Mitch's skin is glowing so perfectly like yas

Why have two turbines go at 50% than one at 100% (why did they turn off the turbine in front of the other one) Please help im very curious

where did he find that wind speed simulation???

There are so many windmills in the Midwest. When we went to Chicago from St. Louis, we saw tons. When we drove to Colorado, we saw windmills all through Kansas and the plains half of Colorado.

Inplix has the best handbooks and ready instructions. You can learn much from them and make it yourself.

the wind generator graphic looks fury

1.The best windmills can take 58% of wind's energy,slowing it down.
2.You guys flew for one video!Well,everything for your subscribers eh.
3.We Filipinos can benefit from it since we get 20 typhoons a year.Slightly more than 20 since climate change started to take noticeable effect.

and yet, energy is getting more expensive than ever... to companies using this amazing technology are only increasing they profit, the consumer gets screwed as always. the only good side its indeed, the environment.

I would still go for Solar though wind energy is not a bad choice either..

great enthusiasm irate purring $

Damn you flew for one video

Why travel all the way to Germany to ask a few questions? Seems more like an excuse for a holiday. Totally ignoring the energy cost and greenhouse gas emissions that traveling there makes as well.

hydraulic energy is the best
