Solution

1. To generate electricity, the rotatory motion of the windmill is used to turn the turbine of the electric generator.
2. The output of a single windmill is quite small and cannot be used for commercial purposes.
3. Therefore, a number of windmills are erected over a large area, which is known as wind energy farm.
