why wind energy



wind energy is one of the most promising energy technologies for today, for the 21st century, and beyond.

wind energy is clean

wind turbines emit no pollutants.
a modern 600 kw wind turbine in an average location will annually displace 1,200 tones of carbon dioxide from other electricity sources, i.e. usually coal fired power stations. the energy produced by a wind turbine throughout its 20 year life-time in an average location is eighty times larger than the amount of energy used to build, maintain, operate, dismantle, and scrapping it again. in other words, on average it takes only two to three months for a wind turbine to recover all the energy required to build and operate it.

wind energy is abundant

the energy in the wind is a truly sustainable resource. wind will not run out.

already, wind energy is covering 7 per cent of danish ele...
