North Haven Wind
Onshore wind Northumberland, UK
A turbine’s blades capture energy from moving air. A generator turns that motion into electricity, connecting a local resource to the wider energy system.

Three parts of the picture.
Wind moving over the blades creates forces that turn the rotor.
The rotating system drives a generator, producing electrical energy.
Controls respond to changing conditions while monitoring equipment health.
