Gary Snyder, RES, Oklahoma State University. Wade Patterson, Garfield County Assessor. What is wind energy and how is it generated?. Wind energy is a source of renewable energy that harnesses the kinetic energy of the wind or, in other words, of the air in movement.. Senior Design May 2011-01 Team. Andrew . Nigro. (EE).

The objective of the senior design project is to simulate an environment in which a wind resource provides renewable energy. The electricity generated from the wind turbine can be used to power a direct load and potentially be integrated into the Iowa State University power grid.. Eugene S. Takle.

Energy output is proportional to the cube of wind velocity, 100m towers (versus 80m) would produce about 12% more power per installed turbine (NREL). - A Conceptual Study. Energy. V. eq. . = X.
