iwfc87 Posted October 11, 2003 Posted October 11, 2003 Hey all, Just a question on this How efficient are commercial wind turbines in producing electrical energy? By the the term commerical wind turbines, I mean the ones they use in Wind farms. Thanks.
Skye Posted October 11, 2003 Posted October 11, 2003 Google gave me this Yeah it's for kids But it does say that wind machines have an efficiency, in converting kinetic energy to electrical energy, of 30-40%.
iwfc87 Posted October 18, 2003 Author Posted October 18, 2003 Hey all, back again I was wondering since most of Australia's windfarms are along the coast, would any of these be offshore windfarms?? I know there are plenty around the world. Just interested in Aus. Thanks!
JaKiri Posted October 18, 2003 Posted October 18, 2003 Most windfarms are offshore, afaik. More wind/less disruption to landscape, etc.
