They can be effective with the right help from executives by making sure that each does their attended workload and not mixing and matching by having the IT department work cross functionally.

    risk of damage to the turbine. At this speed, the turbine employs a braking system to bring the turbine to a halt (Wind turbine ouput). This is not a major concern as weather records indicate that for the months of June to August 2014, there was not a single day with wind speeds in this range (Climate). This means that during these months, wind turbines would only be inactive as a result of repairs and maintenance. Many people also oppose the installation of wind turbines due to the reduction…

    of wind turbines contribute to more bird deaths and bird population decline than any other factor known (Drewitt, Langston 2008). What these underwater wind farms would do is that they would almost eliminate all bird strikes and bird deaths due to wind turbine towers, with the only exception being birds that dive deep into water to get food. Even though these underwater wind turbines use the current of the ocean rather than wind, the same technology that the above ground wind turbines use are…

    constructed all around the country and currently provide 5% of the nation’s power (David Clarke, 2012). It is a form of renewable energy that uses a strong flow of air to rotate three large blades connected to a generator to produce electricity. Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy in the wind into mechanical power (energy.gov, 2014). Compared to other forms of energy production, wind power is one of the world’s greenest and most environmentally sustainable energy sources. Mathias Aarre…
