POOR ELECTRIC SUPPLY

 HOW TO OVERCOME SHORTAGE OF ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BY USING WINDMILL PROJECT

Generating electricity using a windmill (wind turbine) involves converting wind energy into electrical energy through a process that’s simple in theory, but needs good setup. Here's how it works and how you can do it—even on a small scale.

 How Windmills Generate Electricity

  •  Wind Blows ➝ Spins the Blades
Wind pushes the blades of the turbine, making them spin.
  • Spinning Blades ➝ Spins a Shaft.
The blades are connected to a rotor, which turns a central shaft.
  •  Shaft ➝ Turns a Generator
The shaft is connected to a generator. As the shaft spins, the generator produces electricity through electromagnetic induction.









 What You Need to Build a Small Wind Turbine (Basic Setup)

Rotor/Blades- Catch wind and rotate
Shaft- Transfers spinning motion
Generator-Converts motion into electricity
Tower/Pole-Elevates the turbine to catch more wind
Charge -Controller Regulates electricity flow
Battery- Stores the electricity
Inverter- Converts DC to AC if needed


 Best Places to Use a Windmill

Open areas with strong and steady wind (e.g., hills, farms, coastlines).

Rural areas where grid electricity is weak or missing.



NB:

Wind speed must be at least 10–15 km/h to generate useful power.

Place turbine above trees and buildings for best performance.

Use a wind charge controller to avoid overcharging your battery.
