The beginnings – history of wind energy

The wind is the motion of the air compared to surface of the earth.

Wind is caused by air flowing from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.

The Wind Energy today – Real solution for electricity generation in the 21th century

The wind, as renewable energy The energy sources, available in the nature without human influence are renewable energy.

The available quantity of the renewable energy sources are not decreasing after its utilization and always regenerating.

The wind energy is the most utilized renewable energy source besides the water, solar, geothermal or the bio energy.

The wind energy, as clean energy The traditional energy

sources, as coal, oil, natural gas, and the nuclear energy as well, have significant pollution on our environment.

One of the biggest challenges in the 21th century is, that we need stop the climate change, what comes from the burning fossil energy release .

The wind energy significantly saves the clean air, while the greenhouse gas emissions are zero.

The wind energy in the past and today

20 years ago the wind had insignificant role in the electricity generation – in the last two decades the capacity of the wind plant increased up to 40-times.

In 2008 the wind plants had the biggest share from the new power plant construction in the world, more as the natural gas plants.

Conditions of the wind plants constructions

The average yearly wind speed must be above 6,0 m/s

The distance of the wind towers must be 300 meters from each other –, so the wind parks need enough space.

The wind plants need balancing energy generation from other plants, while the power of the wind does not always match with the consumption demands.

The wind plants conditions The wind turbine

capacity is between 1-3 MW per unit.

The hub height is 80-110 m, and the blades are 70-90 diameters.

One megawatt wind plant investment costs HUF 400-500 million, eqv. EUR 1,5 – 1,8 million.

The fuel costs of the wind energy are the cheapest, plus the wind is always available from the nature without cost.

The future of wind energy

The European Union’s target is that by 2020, 20% of all the energy consumption should be generated from renewable energy sources – wind energy will be the biggest contributor from that share.

Wind energy in Hungary The first wind plant was

installed at 2002, in Kulcs by the Danube river, the size of the turbine was 600 kW capacity.

Until 2007 the wind capacity has not increased practically, but in the last two years in the north-west region Hungary had 138 MW new wind plant capacity.

The future of wind energy in Hungary In 2010 we have promising

changes in our country as far as the wind energy is concerned: 200 MW new capacity is under construction, the government will issue building permit for 410 MW. Based on that, the built capacity will achieve the 700 MW at 2012 and the wind energy will have 3-4% share on the electricity generation.

Hungary, as the member of the European Union, committed 900-1.200 MW wind energy for 2020.
