Since the blades don’t turn fast enough to generate electricity, what component of the wind Turbine helps to increase of rotation?
1 answer
The gearbox is the component of the wind turbine that helps to increase the rotation of the blades. The gearbox converts the slower rotational speed of the blades into the higher rotational speed needed to generate electricity.
