| Summary: | The use of the wind as an energy source is increasing and growing worldwide. Wind energy is an important non-fossil option to supplement fossil (coal, natural gas and oil) and nuclear fuels for the generation of electricity. Many parts of the world, particularly the coastlines of Western Europe, North Africa, North and South America, India, Eastern Russia, China, the Philippines, Australia and New Zealand, experience a high annual incidence of wind energy. The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, together with the Republic of Ireland form a particularly windy location, being f. |

Wind energy is an important non-fossil option to supplement fossil (coal, natural gas and oil) and nuclear fuels for the generation of electricity. Many parts of the world, particularly the coastlines of Western Europe, North Africa, North and South America, India, Eastern Russia, China, the Philippines, Australia and New Zealand, experience a high annual incidence of wind energy. The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, together with the Republic of Ireland form a particularly windy location, being f.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Wind power.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85146874</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Electric power production.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85041913</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Énergie éolienne.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Électricité</subfield><subfield code="x">Production.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">wind power.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">electric power production.</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">BUSINESS & ECONOMICS</subfield><subfield code="x">Real Estate</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Electric power production</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Wind power</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="700" ind1="1" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Zhang, Li.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Electricity generation using wind power (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCFv3DycdYVccfwHqFJ4P43</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Shepherd, W.
