Wind Energy in Belgium

How much energy content is in the wind and how much power a wind turbine can generate from a given wind speed can be explained by the following formula So, the power generated by a wind turbine depends upon air density, rotor disc area, and wind speed. Usually, we consider air density as constant thus…

In fact, fires in wind turbines are much less common than fires in other energy sources, suchas the oil and natural gas sector, where there are thousands of fires a year. The main causes of fire in wind turbines are: The biggest risk in wind turbine fires is with wind blades, which are made of…
