Wind power plants are one of the oldest techniques for generating energy from the wind. Strictly speaking, every windmill is a wind power plant. The principle is the same: The wind rotates large blades that generate electricity.First attempts to generate electricity from wind are known from 1887. The Scotsman James Blyth used a wind turbine to use accumulators to illuminate his holiday home. In his time the wings were still covered with canvas to provide a sufficient surface for the wind.First successful tests with profiled rotor blades were undertaken in Denmark. In 1920, Albert Betz formulated the physical principle of aerodynamically shaped blades.In Germany, the first significant wind power plants were implemented in the "GROWIAN" (Large Wind Turbine) project. These are two-bladed rotors used to generate energy. Today, a modern wind turbine usually has three blades. If several such wind turbines are located together in one place, we speak of a wind farm. Increasingly, the power of the wind on the high seas is being used to generate energy. Residents' complaints are not to be expected. Unfortunately, not everyone on land is convinced of the need for gentle energy generation. At sea, however, only the strength or weakness of the material stands in the way of the project. Since the materials have been increasingly improved, the so-called offshore wind turbines are now quite feasible.
