What is wind?

Wind power harnesses the kinetic energy of wind using wind turbines to generate electricity. These turbines convert the wind's mechanical energy into electrical energy, providing a renewable and clean energy source. Wind energy is commonly used to power homes, businesses, and even entire communities, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and mitigating climate change.
