      Frequently Asked Questions about Wind Energy

      Wind energy involves generating electricity by harnessing the kinetic energy of natural air flows. Wind energy can be broken down into three basic types. Utility-scale wind energy involves generating power grid electricity with turbines of more than 100 kilowatts. Distributed wind energy involves turbines of less than 100 kilowatts, which typically power off-grid homes and businesses. Offshore wind energy involves the use of wind farms that are positioned in oceans.‎

      Learning about wind energy, which is a clean and sustainable fuel source, gives you the opportunity to help minimize society's reliance on fossil fuels, which pollute the environment and damage human health. Wind energy is also a growing industry in the United States, accounting for over $10 billion in annual investments.‎

      Learning about wind energy can prepare you for various jobs designing, manufacturing, installing, and repairing wind turbines. Researchers in the field use computer models and resource assessments to determine the pros and cons of different turbine designs and their placements. Wind turbine technicians are tasked with installing, operating, and maintaining the turbines. This is one of the fastest growing job fields in the U.S. Knowledge of the field can also prepare you for a job in turbine sales and marketing.‎
