Wind power is the use of wind energy to generate useful work. Historically, wind power was used by sails, windmills and windpumps, but today it is mostly used to generate electricity. This article deals only with wind power for electricity generation. Today, wind power is generated almost completely using wind turbines, generally grouped into wind farms and connected to the electrical grid.
Antonio José de Sucre power station (Planta Termoeléctrica Antonio Jose de Sucre) is an operating power station of at least 170-megawatts (MW) in Cumaná, Sucre,
By storing surplus energy during periods of high wind, wind power energy storage systems can smooth out fluctuations, releasing energy when wind speeds drop or when demand increases,
It supports 2.5kWh battery expansion packs and can support up to 6 power packs, reaching 17.5kWH, to provide a stable power supply for various household appliances.
Wind power is the nation''s largest source of renewable energy, with more than 150 gigawatts of wind energy installed across 42 U.S. States and Puerto Rico. These projects

Wind power or wind energy is a form of renewable energy that harnesses the power of the wind to generate electricity. It involves using wind turbines to convert the turning motion of blades, pushed by moving air (kinetic energy) into electrical energy (electricity).
Historically, wind power was used by sails, windmills and windpumps, but today it is mostly used to generate electricity. This article deals only with wind power for electricity generation. Today, wind power is generated almost completely using wind turbines, generally grouped into wind farms and connected to the electrical grid.
Wind turbines used as a distributed energy resource can be connected at the distribution level of an electricity delivery system (or in off-grid applications) to serve on-site energy demand, or support operation of local electricity distribution networks.
Small-scale wind power is the name given to wind generation systems with the capacity to produce up to 50 kW of electrical power. Isolated communities, that may otherwise rely on diesel generators, may use wind turbines as an alternative.
