Wind power is created by using wind turbines. A wind turbine is a machine that uses the kinetic energy in wind to make mechanical energy; it does this by rotating. Wind only produces about 1.5% of the energy used in the world but this number will hopefully increase in the near future. This percentage doubled in the last three years alone! Denmark is the country with the most wind energy use at 19%, Spain comes in second with 10%, and then Portugal with 7%. Hopefully the rest of the world will follow the lead of these countries to save energy in the future.
