One of the Wind Turbines just off the North Kent Coast at Herne Bay. Spent a windy afternoon with Bayblast boats visiting the wind farm and the old Maunsell forts, great fun and highly recommended, although you're likely, along with your camera, to get wet!
La energÃa eólica es la que se obtiene por medio del viento, es decir mediante la utilización de la energÃa cinética generada por efecto de las corrientes de aire.
El término eólico viene del latÃn Aeolicus, perteneciente o relativo a Éolo o Eolo, dios de los vientos en la mitologÃa griega y, por tanto, perteneciente o relativo al viento. La energÃa eólica ha sido aprovechada desde la antigüedad para mover los barcos impulsados por velas o hacer funcionar la maquinaria de molinos al mover sus aspas. Es un tipo de energÃa verde.
Parque eólico, en la actualidad se utiliza, sobre todo, para mover aerogeneradores. En estos la energÃa eólica mueve una hélice y mediante un sistema mecánico se hace girar el rotor de un generador, normalmente un alternador, que produce energÃa eléctrica. Para que su instalación resulte rentable, suelen agruparse en concentraciones denominadas parques eólicos.
Si bien los parques eólicos son relativamente recientes, iniciando a popularizarse en las décadas de los 80 - 90, desde hace mucho tiempo la energÃa eólica se ha utilizado en otras aplicaciones, como: moler granos o bombear agua, basta recordar los ya famosos molinos de viento en las andanzas de Don Quijote.
The wind was blowing hard and it was very cold but sunny. I could almost walk right up to the birds. They wouldn't move.
Wind mills have worked for man for centuries. They identify rural America for most people. They will be a part of future energy solutions, not the answer. These are part of a companys inventory of products they produce.

A wonderful day with great photographer Keith Craven. He'd not been to South Gare before, so I took him to my favourite location. He was like a kid in a sweet shop - and no wonder, we were dished up a great range of light. Bumped into a couple of people I knew, including Antony Fleming. Beans on toast at the great little café kept us going for the afternoon
Some wind power in Inner Mongolia. Only a couple of them were actually going. My co-worker Kwee-Yan and I wanted to go up and look at them but we weren't allowed.

Song: Cold Wind
In the middle of the summer
I'm not sleeping
cold wind blowing
in the middle of the night they
try to find me but im still driving
if you're going to San Francisco
lay some flowers on the grave stone
there's music on the station and I'm just listening to cold wind whistling
and if they ever find me tell the papers cold wind cold wind
cold, cold wind blowing
cold wind blowing
Hey hey hey
something aint right
something aint right
and if they ever find me tell the papers cold wind cold wind
cold, cold wind blowing cold wind blowing cold wind blowing
cold wind blowing cold wind blowing
The lady above the Kits Beach pool was swimming faster than usual, thanks to a stiff westerly breeze. The movie makes the fan appear to be moving erratically - but that is one of those frames per minute illusions.
