WIND POWER is a form of renewable energy.

PROS & CONS

‘Though power from solar and wind is intermittent, nature often cancels out the fluctuations: sunny days tend not to be windy, and vice versa. Wind technology is running up against the laws of physics: it is hard to see great new gains in siting, or in the design of bearings and blades. And wind turbines are widely considered unsightly and noisy,’ (‘Renewables–We make our own?’ The Economist Special Report–Energy & Technology 17th January 2015, p6-8).
