5. What is Wind Energy ??
Wind Energy is a indirect form of solar energy.
Wind is nothing but the uneven heating of the atmosphere by the sun.
Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy in the wind into useful power
energy.
In example using ; wind turbines to make electricity, windmills for
mechanical power, wind-pumps for water pumping etc.
6. Types of Wind Turbines
Horizontal-axis Turbine Vertical-axis Turbines
9. Wind energy in Bangladesh
The potential of wind energy is limited to coastal areas, off-shore islands,
rivers sides and other inland open areas with strong wind regime.
For generating electricity from Wind Energy BPDB (Bangladesh power
development board ) installed 2 wind plant.
0ne at Muhuri Dam area of Sonagazi in Feni which is 4x225 KW = 900 KW
capacity grid connected Wind Plant Another project at Kutubdia
Island which is 1000 KW Wind Power battery.
