Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. The blades capture wind and turn a shaft connected to a generator, producing electricity. America's first offshore wind farm, Cape Wind, will have 130 turbines off Cape Cod, MA capable of powering 500,000 homes without pollution. However, wind turbines can be dangerous to flying wildlife and noisy for nearby residents.

1. Wh
Wind turbines is a machine that converts wind
energy into kinetic energy which eventually gets
converted into electric energy.

2. Ho
Wind turbines operate on a simple principle. The
energy in the wind turns two or three propeller-
like blades around a rotor. The rotor is
connected to the main shaft, which spins a
generator to create electricity.

3. America's first offshore
wind farm
● America's first offshore wind farm will also be
one of the world's largest. With its 130 offshore
wind turbines, each with a 3.6 megawatt
capacity, Cape Wind Offshore Wind Farm will
be situated off Cape Cod in the state of
Massachusetts on the US east coast. When
completed, the turbines will be able to produce
electrical power for up to 500,000 households.

4. Negative things about wind
turbines
● First of all wild life that can fly like birds can die.
● Second of all people that lives near to wind
turbines complain about the noise.

5. Positive things about wind
turbines
● It doesn't pollute the world
● It cost less money than normal electricity
