Winds are caused by the uneven heating of the surface of the earth by the sun; it is a form of solar energy. Wind flows are changed by the earth’s topography, vegetation and bodies of water. We use this energy flow for all kinds of things such as sailing, flying a kite and more importantly generating electricity. When learning about how to build a wind generator it helps to know what exactly a wind turbine consists of. The fans like blades spin from wind hitting the blades at an angle that causes the blades to turn; it is connected to a gear box to: a wind turbine has an electrical generator inside where the electrical charge is created. The electricity is transmitted to a battery bank or to a power grid depending. This of course is a very rudimentary description. When researching how to build a wind generator there is much to consider. Below is a general overview.
