2. Wind energy –prevalent and produced

4. Patterns and Trends

5. Advantages
• Wind energy is clean 0% Co2 emissions
doesn’t contribute to global warming.
• Wind energy is renewable and sustainable.
• Many winter turbines, common people have access to
DIY turbines.
• Build one for under $200.
• Only electrical cars can run on it.
• Doesn’t take a lot of space.
• Advantageous for small towns which are cut off from
main lands.
• DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR WIND since it is abundant
• Vary in size

6. Disadvantages

ex: along the shore.
• Wind farms interfere with television reception
• Kills birds
• Causes noise pollution
• Produce a lot less energy than fossil fuels.

7. Conclusion
• NO….
• doesn’t have a lot of
potential/ cannot totally Advantages
depend on it.
• not consistent.
Disadvantages
• Location = limiting factor.
• Doesn’t produce enough
energy for big cities.
• Wind patterns are ever -
changing
• More research would be
needed to increase the
efficiently of wind turbines
to produce more energy.
