The current energy supply heavily relies on fossil fuels such as petroleum, natural gas, and coal. These fossil fuels took thousands of years to form from organic substances, essentially making them stored biomass from long ago. A significant amount of fossil fuels was depleted in the 20th century due to high consumption rates. As demand continues increasing, extracting remaining fossil fuels will become riskier and more expensive. If consumption proceeds at the current pace, all available natural gas and petroleum resources will be depleted by the end of the 21st century. Renewable energy sources are the only sustainable way to meet the Earth's energy demands without further disrupting the climate. Among the available renewable options, wind energy has become one of the most commonly utilized for electric power generation. Wind energy now plays an increasingly vital role in the energy sector as tremendous growth in the industry continues. Numerous wind turbines are being erected to capture wind power and convert it into electricity.
