The enormous growth of wind energy in Illinois and around the country has led to a shortage of wind turbines. Turbine manufacturers have sold out their capacity into 2010. To the extent that Illinois manufacturing can integrate itself into the wind turbine supply chain, Illinois can enjoy the ...
In this Dec. 9, 2015, file photo, cattle graze in a pasture against a backdrop of wind turbines which are part of the 155 turbine Smoky Hill Wind Farm near Vesper, Kansas. Fifty wind farms have opened in Illinois since 2003 and more are in the works, but not everyone is on board. ...
Other major health concerns from living or working around turbines are epileptic seizures, headaches, nausea, and general disturbance from shadow flicker, which occurs when the sun shines through the turbine’s spinning prongs, causing a shadowing effect that can sometimes be seen in homes and build...

Because Texas leads the nation in wind energy generation, it makes sense that the state is also a leader in the number of wind turbines. The Lone Star State has 19,127 active wind turbines, according to the most recent report from the U.S. Wind Turbine Database. Texas has more active ...
Electrical energy is produced from wind by wind turbines mounted on towers, similar to the small unit in the photographs shown on this page. On a wind turbine, the large blades, or rotor, of the turbine capture the wind's energy and begin turning. The wind turbine rotor, rotating as the...
