Nowadays, we humans prefer to use natural energy sources, including wind energy. Wind energy is a green energy source and does not cause pollution.The potential of this energy source is enormous - 20 times more than what all humans need.Wind energy is renewable and there is no way we can run out of it (because they come from the sun).Residential wind turbines provide energy savings and protect homeowners from power outages.However, wind power also has some disadvantages. Wind is an oscillating (intermittent) source of energy and is not suitable to meet the needs of the base load energy unless some form of energy storage is used.The manufacture and installation of wind turbines requires large investments - both in commercial and residential applications.Wind turbines can pose a threat to wildlife.
