REPP: WIND
wind energy. wind energy, the world s fastest growing energy source, is a clean and renewable source of energy that has been in use
http://solstice.crest.org/wind/

Extractions: Wind energy, the world's fastest growing energy source, is a clean and renewable source of energy that has been in use for centuries in Europe and more recently in the United States and other nations. Wind turbines, both large and small, produce electricity for utilities and homeowners and remote villages. North Carolina Economic Development Offshore wind farms are wind developments located in submerged lands, lands that are owned by state and federal governments. Local communities can benefit directly and indirectly from offshore wind facilities once a system is established that will channel monies to these affected local communities. An increase in local services to support new jobs created from offshore wind farm development, a preferential bidding system, and existing community development programs are some ways in which a local community could benefit indirectly.

Wind Energy
wind energy Energy from Moving Air. What is wind? Wind is air in motion. Today, wind energy is mainly used to generate electricity. The History of Wind.
http://www.eia.doe.gov/kids/renewable/wind.html

Extractions: What is Energy Kid's Corner Milestones Energy Quiz ... About Energy Ant and Us Wind Energy Energy from Moving Air What is wind? Wind is air in motion. It is produced by the uneven heating of the earths surface by the sun. Since the earths surface is made of various land and water formations, it absorbs the suns radiation unevenly. When the sun is shining during the day, the air over landmasses heats more quickly than the air over water. The warm air over the land expands and rises, and the heavier, cooler air over water moves in to take its place, creating local winds. At night, the winds are reversed because the air cools more rapidly over land than over water. Similarly, the large atmospheric winds that circle the earth are created because the surface air near the equator is warmed more by the sun than the air over the North and South Poles. Wind is called a renewable energy source because wind will continually be produced as long as the sun shines on the earth. Today, wind energy is mainly used to generate electricity. The History of Wind Throughout history, people have harnessed the wind in many ways. Over 5,000 years ago, the ancient Egyptians used wind power to sail their ships on the Nile River. Later, people built windmills to grind their grain. The earliest known windmills were in Persia (Iran). These early windmills looked like large paddle wheels.

Windustry - Wind Energy Easements - Legal Issues
wind energy Easements Legal Issues, The following outline raises issues related to various provisions that can be found in wind energy easement agreements.
http://www.windustry.com/opportunities/easements.htm

Extractions: T he following outline raises issues related to various provisions that can be found in wind energy easement agreements. Its purpose is to give you a general idea of what types of provisions might be contained in proposed easement agreements or easement option agreements that wind energy developers may present to you in an effort to obtain wind energy easements over all or a portion of your land. It is not a comprehensive discussion of the topic and is meant only to be a guide. A wind energy easement agreement, like any easement agreement, is a legally binding agreement that needs to be carefully reviewed and understood before executing it. A wind energy easement agreement will have a long-term effect on you and your land. It will affect not only you but also future generations. It is important that you not agree to or execute any easement agreement or easement option agreement until you have discussed it with your attorney and he or she has had an opportunity to review it. It is strongly advised that upon receiving a wind energy agreement or option agreement that you take it to your attorney along with the attached outline for his or her review. When approached by a wind energy developer with a wind energy agreement or when just considering the prospects of such an agreement, the following are the some of the questions that you should ask yourself and/or the developer:
Windustry - Wind Energy Economics
wind energy Economics, One of the main benefits of wind energy is economic gain, both for individuals and for communities. Individuals
http://www.windustry.com/basics/05-economics.htm

Extractions: O ne of the main benefits of wind energy is economic gain, both for individuals and for communities. Individuals can save money on their energy bills, and even make money, by generating wind power. Communities can diversify their economies and enjoy greater reliance on local resources when their members invest in wind. Of course, a wind project will provide these advantages only if the economics have been thought through in advance. Like any investment, wind energy projects require some research and a basic understanding of the risks, costs, and benefits involved. Risks Every financial investment carries with it a certain amount of risk. There are basically three ways of investing in wind energy, each of which entails a different level of risk. Leasing Your Land. The least risky way to harvest the wind is to let someone else put up the capital and operate the wind project. You receive payments for the use of your property, while another party constructs and maintains the project. That party owns the turbine; you simply retain the rights to the use of your land. Investing With Others.

The Energy Story - Chapter 16: Wind Energy
Chapter 16 wind energy. Wind can be used to do work. When a boat lifts a sail, it is using wind energy to push it through the water. This is one form of work.
http://www.energyquest.ca.gov/story/chapter16.html

Extractions: Wind can be used to do work. The kinetic energy of the wind can be changed into other forms of energy, either mechanical energy or electrical energy. When a boat lifts a sail, it is using wind energy to push it through the water. This is one form of work. Farmers have been using wind energy for many years to pump water from wells using windmills like the one on the right. In Holland, windmills have been used for centuries to pump water from low-lying areas. Wind is also used to turn large grinding stones to grind wheat or corn, just like a water wheel is turned by water power. Today, the wind is also used to make electricity. Blowing wind spins the blades on a wind turbine just like a large toy pinwheel. This device is called a wind turbine and not a windmill. A windmill grinds or mills grain, or is used to pump water. The blades of the turbine are attached to a hub that is mounted on a turning shaft. The shaft goes through a gear transmission box where the turning speed is increased. The transmission is attached to a high speed shaft which turns a generator that makes electricity. If the wind gets too high, the turbine has a brake that will keep the blades from turning too fast and being damaged.

It promotes research on all issues connected with development of the UK's offshore wind resource and encourages co-operation and partnership between and commercial organisations and researchers. Photo: Vestas Wind Systems A/S OWEN is financially supported by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council ( EPSRC ) and has been greatly aided by the active encouragement and participation of the British Wind Energy Association ( BWEA Offshore Wind Energy in the UK The UK Government is committed to a new and strong drive to develop renewable energy as part of its strategy of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. It has set the target of generating 10% of all the UK's electricity requirement from renewable energy sources by the year 2010. Already over 1020 modern wind turbines, with a combined rating of over 580 MW, have been erected in England, Wales, and Scotland with support from the Non Fossil Fuel Obligation (NFFO) and the Scottish Renewables Order (SRO), which enables developers to sign contracts to supply electricity to the grid for 15 years. The installation of many more turbines is planned, as wind energy is one of the cheapest of the new renewables. It is competitive with new clean coal fired power stations and cheaper than nuclear power. The cost of wind energy varies according to many factors. On average for a new wind farm in a good location it will cost around 2.9 pence per unit, though electricity from smaller wind farms is more expensive.

http://www.re-energy.ca/t_windenergy.shtml

Extractions: Wind energy is really just another form of solar energy. Sunlight falling on oceans and continents causes air to warm and rise, which in turn generates surface winds. The wind has been used by humans for thousands of years, first to carry ships across oceans and, later, to pump water and grind grain. More recently, wind has been harnessed as a clean, safe source of electricity around the world. more These plans are for the construction of a machine called a Savonius wind turbine. Wind turbines come in two general types, those whose main turning shaft is horizontal and points into the wind, and those with a vertical shaft that points up. The Savonius is an example of the vertical axis type. It consists of two simple scoops that catch the wind and cause the shaft to turn. more
