How does wind energy work?

The basic working principle of a wind turbine is to convert the mechanical energy from the wind into rotational energy at the mill, then the rotation of the mill is used to rotate the generator, which will eventually generate electricity. This tool serves to change the low rotation of the wheel into high rotation.

Wind power actually starts with the Sun. In order for the wind to blow, the Sun first heats up a section of land along with the air above it. That hot air rises since a given volume of hot air is lighter than the same volume of cold air. Cooler air then rushes in to fill the void left by that hot air and  then a gust of wind happens.
