Discuss the need for wind power generation and attitudes towind power generation in north Wales.Energy is one of the most important resources required for carrying tasks and survivingin the world. Because of high cost and environmental problems involved innonrenewable resources of energy, many countries have been taking initiatives forshifting towards renewable energy resources. This is highly critical for ensuringsustainability in environment and reserving energy for future generations. Therenewable energy resources do not consume the finite natural resources available onearth and they can be replenished again and again. There have been several resourcesof renewable energy sources such as solar energy and wind power. This essay hasfocused on analyzing the need for wind power generation in North Wales. Moreover,attitudes of people towards wind power generation have also been analyzed critically. Wind power that is often referred to as wind energy is the form of energy that isextracted from wind through turbines for producing electrical power (Tong, 2010). Thewind power is produced when high speed wind turns blades of the rotor that is furtherconnected with the shaft that spins turbines for generation of electricity. The windturbines are usually mounted on the tower for capturing wind energy. The high of windturbines is usually 100 feet above ground level. The main reason of having this muchheight is to capture less turbulent and faster wind. The wind power can be used fordomestic purposes or they can further be connected with the major electrical grid forenhancing electricity distribution. However, the distribution of wind across large scaledistribution lines for large population is quite difficult process (Hauand Renouard,2013).For promoting use of sustainable energy resources such as wind power, it is importantto understand what people think and perceive regarding this form of energy within NorthWales. A survey has been conducted to know perceptions of people regarding windpower. There have been 20 males and 12 females in the survey sample that revealsthat results of survey will depict perceptions of both gender groups.
