GERAÇÃO DE ENERGIA EÓLICA

Abstract

Electric energy can be understood as a fundamental element that it exerts on human life, its use since the discovery has been essential for transport, telecommunications, water supply and sewage treatment, food, technology, among others. Electric energy is one of the most used forms of energy, due to its role of great importance for sustainable development. Its use must be more harmonious and suitable for natural resources, aiming at its generation with greater efficiency until use, passing through transmission and distribution with the lowest possible losses, balancing with the environment in its broadest concept. Energy planning should be fundamentally strategic for regional development and even for the country, aiming at its growth in a sustainable, competitive and clean way. The great challenge of supplying energy needs for economic growth safely and effectively, with the use of alternative and renewable sources compared to those already traditional. Currently, modern society depends on the most direct form of electricity supply, which can be done in several ways, a fact that directly affects the nation's competitiveness in relation to existing and globalized markets. This dependence is only possible through existing sources of energy. generation, whether as non-renewable energy sources such as fossil fuels through the use of oil. coal and gas, as well as renewable energy sources with the use of hydroelectric energy, biomass, solar, wind, etc. Despite all the existing energetic matrices, there is still much to be explored and researched. With the constant increase in energy demand, Brazil still needs to invest in research, construction of new plants, new alternatives of energy sources, preferably in clean and renewable energy. Wind energy is one of the alternative sources of electricity generation with the prospect of generating large amounts of energy without causing the environmental impacts that are caused by conventional sources.
