From The Workbench - Alternative + Renewable Energy Blog Valuable information for do-it-yourselfers interested in the latest in alternative + renewable energy

Ever wonder how those huge windmills you see out in the fields work?  No, not the Don Quixote windmills, but the ones that you KNOW are sucking up the power of the wind, and converting it into reusable, renewable energy to help power our lives.  Ever wonder how the smaller ones are made?  Well, if you’re at all like me, curiousity always gets the better of you and you just HAVE to know how it’s made.

Thanks again go to the “How It’s Made” crew of the Discovery channel, as I just found this awesome little video that shows just how they work, how they are made, and what goes into them.  Something about seeing “behind the scenes” always makes me happy, especially when it is for such an awesome, green invention that has been around for a long, long time

Check out this awesome video ( you only have to watch the beginning as the Wind Generators are the first up), and then have an amazing weekend!
