The use of windmills in the US
Windmills that would float hundreds of miles out at sea could one day help satisfy our energy needs without being eyesores from land, scientists said today. Today, with increases in energy prices and the expense of replacing electric pumps, has led to an increase in the repair, restoration and installation of new windmills. The arrival of electricity in rural areas, brought by the Rural Electrification Administration in the earth 4 energy 1930s through 1950s, contributed to the decline in the use of windmills in the US. Windmills and related equipment are still manufactured and installed today on farms and ranches, usually in remote parts of the western United States where electric power is not readily available.
