Abstract :
Energy is measure of all kinds of work by human beings and nature.
Today , every country draws its energy needs from a variety of sources
We can broadly categorize these sources as :
• Conventional sources and
• Non-conventional sources.
There is a fear that conventional sources of energy will get exhausted in
the next century. Therefore other systems based on non-conventional
sources are being tried in many countries,
One of the non-conventional energies is the wind energy . Wind
energy can be utilized to run wind mills to produce electricity. The latest
technologies of wind mills say that the offshore wind mills have high out
put. This is because offshore is free from obstacles and full of non-stop
high speed winds. The power developed by the wind mills is said to be
depend on the cube of velocity of air that passes through the turbine.
Offshore wind mills have only for the 97% of time, which means the
technology is yet to develop to be more efficient.
