As of 2023, had a total installed wind of 255 (GW). In 2017, a total of 15,680 MW of was installed, representing 55% of all new power capacity, and the wind power generated 336 of electricity, enough to supply 11.6% of the EU's electricity consumption. In Q4 2023, wind power exceeded coal in European electricity generation for the firs.
Wind turbines use blades to collect the wind's kinetic energy. Roughly 1 to 2 percent of the solar energy that reaches Earth gets converted into the movement of air, making wind a form of solar energy one step removed. The sun heats Earth's surface unevenly, creating areas of high and low air pressure, and air flows from high-pressure zones toward low-pressure zones to equalize the difference. Historically, wind power was used by sails, windmills and windpumps, but today it is mostly used to generate electricity. Today, wind power is generated almost. How winds finally end up blowing the way they do results from a fascinating interplay of different forces, each acting on different length and time scales. As of 2024, hundreds of thousands of large turbines, in installations known as wind farms, were generating over 1,136 gigawatts of power, with 117 GW added each year.

Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan—wind turbines use wind to make electricity. In a wind power plant, the kinetic energy of the flowing air mass is transformed into mechanical energy of the blades of the rotor. Now let's discuss the importance of a wind power plant. The following are the important features of Wind. To understand how wind turbines generate electricity, we need to start with the basic principle behind wind energy conversion.
