Wind power is the way in which wind energy is converted using wind power generators into more useful forms, such as electricity. Windmills (a much older technology we are familiar with) used wind energy to turn mechanical machinery to do physical work, such as milling / crushing grain, or pumping water. Modern technology has allowed the rotation of wind power generators blades to turn into electrical current by means of an electrical generator.
I came to use solar and wind energy by necessity, not for the pleasure: Few years ago the country I was living in at the time went through a devastating war. As with all wars, the main and strategic targets were water and electricity production facilities. I was left with few options to power my house. A power generator was not one of them as fuel was almost unavailable at the time. This is how I took the plunge and began my journey towards solar and wind energy.
Solarpower and wind turbines are a great way to save money on your electricity bills.

Wind power generators are devices which are used in the generation of electrical current and are powered by the wind. Like in the days of yore, old fashioned windmills, today’s wind machines use blades to collect the kinetic energy made by wind. Windmills work because their blades slow down the speed of the wind. The wind flows over the airfoil-shaped blades causing lift, like found in the effect on airplane wings, making them turn. When the wind blows at a set speed (usually two miles an hour) the blades (connected to a drive shaft that turns an electric generator) produce electricity
