of the material will be updated throughout. Also, it adds practical uses for wind
power, such as municipal street lighting, industrial refrigeration, telecommunications,
etc. It will also examine the history of wind energy, and provide ample reasons to
shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy. It will cover the characteristics of
wind, such as shear, power potential, and turbulence, and discuss the measurement
and siting of individual wind turbines and wind farms. The text will present the design,
aerodynamics, operation, control, applications, and different types of wind turbines.
It will also explore the wind industry from its inception in the 1970s to today as
