Trident Winds plans to build a floating array of about 100 wind turbines, each with a hub height of 400 feet — which works out to up to 600 feet in height when one of the turning blades is at the 12 o'clock position — some 33 nautical miles off Morro Bay.

Wind turbines only produce electricity when there is sufficient wind to turn the blades of the turbWind turbines only produce electricity when there is sufficient wind to turn the blades of the turbwind to turn the blades of the turbine.

Under normal circumstances, wind turbine blades are left to turn slowly in the wind until they reach «cut - in speed,» the point at which they're spinning fast enough to begin generating power.

Turbine blades that broke were first two to be turned on Huron Daily Tribune Brenda Battel 4 November 2016 BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP — The two blades that broke on separate wind turbines last month were the first two to be turned on in the startup phase of the Deerfield wind project.

As the blades of a wind turbine turn, the kinetic energy of the wind is converted into mechanical energy, which is transmitted through a drive shaft to an electrical generator in the nacelle.

If the wind speed increases above the cut - out speed the blades are «feathered» (turned about their axes so as not to produce rotational force at the hub) and the turbine stops.

It's actually pretty simple: The energy in wind turns the turbine's blades around a rotor that is connected to the main shaft, which itself spins a generator to create electricity.

Although the weather wasn't ideal for spectators, it did keep the blades of the city's largest wind turbine turning at a rate of about 48 revolutions per minute.

The fuel that turns the turbine blades is free; this means that once a wind farm is built, the price of electricity it produces is set and remains at that level for the entire life of the wind farm.
