1. Wind Energy Wind Energy Made possible by: Noortje van Gils, Anne van den Brule, Mascha de Groot, Lauren Gommers and Lieve Brouwers

2. Subjects *Physical/chemical processes *Where can it be achieved? *On what scale can it be applied? *When can this resource be used? *Hydrogen *Benefits and backlashes *Positive & negative effects on the ecosystem *Which investments are to be made? *What about the future? *Why is this a good example of a renewable energy source?

3. Physical Process: Chemical process:

5. Where can it be achieved? *Coastal areas

6. Where can it be achieved? *Coastal areas *On top of rounded hills

7. Where can it be achieved? *Coastal areas *On top of rounded hills *Large open spaces

8. Where can it be achieved? *Coastal areas *On top of rounded hills *Large open spaces *Gaps in mountains

9. On which scale can it be applied? Small scale = <100 KW Large scale = >100 KW

10. When can this resource be used? Strong wind!

11. Hydrogen Wind energy stored in hydrogen.

12. Benefits and Backlashes Benefits *Clean *Cost competitive *Renewable *Local *Reliable and efficient Backlashes *Noise pollution *Space for turbines

13. Positive and Negative effect on the the ecosystem Positive effects *No fuel burnt *No air/water pollution Negative effects *Bats/birds killed *Visual pollution

14. Which investments are to be made? *Expensive materials *Time *Money

15. What about the future? *34% more wind energy than now *Prices go down

16. Why is this a good example of a r renewable energy source? Because the wind will blow as long as the sun shines!
