Light winds or breezes do generate power which you can store in storage batteries. Wind power was very popular in the 1930 to 1950 period. Many people used this to generate power or to do other tasks such as pumping water from a well. I will outline the basics of wind power electricity generation. Firstly, there is the wind which is simply air moving about. As it comes up against the propeller of the wind turbine it is forced to slow down and move around the propeller. Some of this energy is transferred to the propeller which starts to spin. The propeller is connected to a shaft which then spins inside an alternator/generator to generate the electricity. Inside the alternator/generator it is the effect of magnets moving around a piece of electrical wire that forces electrons to move through the wire — and there we have it, electricity. But because of our own doing, we have turned our planet into a microwave that is melting itself. Wind power we initially used in windmills and turbines that convert the energy used to make electricity available to areas that commercial energy contributors have not reached. Towers can be erected to gather kinetic energy that can later be redistributed as electricity to homes. You must contact specialists or spend huge amounts of dollars on home wind power kits. Fortunately, lately, guides that teach you how to do it yourself appeared. The process is very simple, just need to buy some parts, install them and then connect to your house.
