Tuuleparkides, often translated as wind farms, are areas where multiple wind turbines are installed to generate electricity from wind. These installations are a key component of renewable energy strategies worldwide, aiming to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and mitigate climate change. Wind turbines capture kinetic energy from the wind and convert it into mechanical energy, which is then used to drive a generator producing electricity.

The placement of wind farms is typically in locations with consistent and strong wind resources, such as coastal areas, offshore sites, or open plains. The scale of wind farms can vary significantly, from small clusters of turbines to vast complexes spanning many acres. Offshore wind farms, located in bodies of water, often benefit from higher and more stable wind speeds, leading to greater energy production.

The construction and operation of wind farms involve various stages, including site assessment, turbine manufacturing, installation, and ongoing maintenance. While wind energy is a clean source of power, the development of wind farms can raise environmental considerations, such as visual impact, noise levels, and potential effects on wildlife, particularly birds and bats. However, advancements in turbine design and siting practices are continuously being made to address these concerns. The electricity generated by wind farms is fed into the national grid, contributing to the overall energy supply.
