wind turbine performance

Wind turbine performance refers to how effectively a turbine converts wind energy into electricity. It depends on wind speed, blade design, and turbine size. As wind flows over the blades, it causes them to spin, turning a generator that produces electricity. Performance is often measured by the capacity factor, which shows how much energy the turbine produces relative to its maximum potential. Factors like turbulent or low wind speeds can reduce output, while high, steady winds improve efficiency. Proper site selection and turbine maintenance are crucial for optimal performance, ensuring the turbine generates reliable, sustainable energy.
