1 Harvesting the Wind Nick Haltvick

2 What Did I Get Myself Into?! I choose this area of study due to curiosity! The Paper Researching modern technology To discover more about the past The Project To build it myself Experimenting

3 The Paper Wind Turbines History G. McNeilus Wind Farm

4 What is a Wind Turbine? A generator with blades propelled by the wind that is mounted on top of a tower Changes kinetic energy into mechanical energy A clean energy alternative

5 History Ancient Times Rural Electricity Act Early Generators Rebirth during 1970s

6 G. McNeilus Wind Farm

7 III. G. McNeilus Wind Farm A. How the company started B. Building the wind turbines C. Sizes of wind turbines D. Safeguard against weather E. Company’s future IV. Conclusion
