Top Five Things About Wind Energy

Here are the top five things you should know about wind energy.

1. Renewable energy source, which means that unlike fossil fuels can not be depleted. Until the earth and the sun will continue to wind blowing offer us valuable source of energy.

2. Environmentally friendly source of energy that is not linked to harmful emissions of carbon such as fossil fuels. Some environmental disadvantages of this renewable energy source noise (in some cases with extremely large wind turbines), and the threat to birds (if wind turbines are not connected with radar operations in the air in the holes).

3. In the last decade was the most popular renewable energy source, and the fastest growing renewable energy sector. This trend is likely to continue in the coming years mainly due to the rapid development of wind energy industry in China.

4. One of the most cost competitive renewable energy and wind turbines become cheaper almost every year. However, in the U.S. wind industry has been struggling somewhat lately, but because of low gas prices. This low gas prices are one of the main reasons why U.S. wind energy industry is very disappointing last quarter of 2010 had.

5. Wind industry currently faces two major obstacles that could delay some further development. These are not enough transmission lines and the intermittent problem because, as you all know wind is not blowing all the time. There are many ongoing scientific studies that attempt to provide adequate (cheap and efficient) wind energy storage option to develop the intermittent problem.
