Wind power is the use of wind energy to generate useful work. Historically, wind power was used by sails, windmills and windpumps, but today it is mostly used to generate electricity. This article deals only with wind power for electricity generation. Today, wind power is generated almost completely using wind turbines, generally grouped into wind farms and connected to the electrical gri. Wind energy resourcesWind is air movement in the Earth's . In a unit of time, say 1 second, the volume of air that had passed an area is . If the air density is, the flow rate of this volume of air is, and the power transfer, or energy tran. . A wind farm is a group of in the same location. A large wind farm may consist of several hundred individual wind turbines distributed over an extended area. The land between the turbines may be used for ag. . In 2024, wind supplied over 2,494 of electricity, which was 8.1% of world electricity. To help meet the 's goals to, analysts say it should exp. . Onshore wind is an inexpensive source of electric power, cheaper than coal plants and new gas plants. According to, wind turbines reached (the point at which the cost of wind power matc.
