Also if you design a home that uses wind energy to produce energy. Describe how this energy is produced and how does it act to you. What are the advantages and disadvantages?
Also create a plan for using Wind Energy in your home for electricity or heating in your home.

wind spins a shaft, which spins a turbine, which uses magnetic fields to make electrons run along copper coils… those electrons are gathered and stored for use latter or used immediately. Use them how you would usually to run a pump, light a light bulb, or toast some bread.
Wind energy is best used in combination with one of the other renewable energy forms or stored. Current storage methods include batteries or flywheels. Flywheels collect the energy as rotational energy. Batteries collect the energy as electrochemical energy.
it seems like it was your assignment?hehe..well, you can check this site for more info, you can find all your question’s answer here..

It’s very easy and you can do it by yourself.
Wind is making turns around a mill like a fan, and this mill is leading a turbine that generate a 12/13 volt power. This powezr is saved in batteries than this 12 volts power is enhanced to 110 v or 220 v according to your country power network. Than this power is going to supply your home.. Very easy and free courses are available in : http://www.windpowercost.org on how to build your green power generator.Thanks.
How is wind used to generate energy?
Wind blows and spins a turbine.
How does hydroelectric generate energy?
Water flows and spins a turbine.
How does coal generate energy?
Coal is burned to heat water, which rises as steam, and spins a turbine.
How does nuclear generate energy?
A nuclear reaction heats water, which rises as steam, and spins a turbine.
