Wind Fences: The Future of Renewable Energy Generation

Image
In the current focus on renewable energy sources that can combat the effects of climate change as well as reduce CO2 emissions, the use of wind power is emerging as a viable option. Wind turbines are widely employed to harness the wind's power and transform it into electric power. There are however some drawbacks of traditional wind turbines like their dimensions, their noise pollution as well as their impact on wildlife. To address these issues the new technology known as the wind fence was created to harness the wind's power to be more environmentally ecological and effective way. What is a Wind Fence? Wind fences are an structure made of a set of slats or vertical panels designed to redirect and capture the wind. Contrary to conventional wind turbines which depend on huge blades for electricity generation however, wind fences employ an alternative method to harness the energy of wind. The wind fence are constructed to generate turbulent winds and reduce the speed of the...
