Correct option is B
· (A) Wind energy is intermittent – True. Wind energy production depends on the availability of wind, which is variable.
· (B) Wind energy is extremely useful in remote and isolated places – True. Wind energy can be harnessed in remote areas where access to the power grid is limited.
· (D) Wind energy is clean – True. Wind energy does not produce direct emissions or pollution.
· (C) Wind energy does not depend on weather – False. Wind energy does depend on weather patterns and the availability of wind.
· (E) Wind energy does not have any environmental impact – False. Wind turbines can impact bird and bat populations and may cause noise pollution.
Information Booster:
1. Wind energy is a renewable energy source that produces no direct emissions.
2. It is intermittent because it depends on wind availability, which varies with weather.
3. Wind energy is particularly useful for off-grid applications in remote areas.
4. Environmental impacts of wind turbines include potential harm to wildlife and aesthetic or noise concerns.
