About the book

The book presents a historical review of the use of wind energy by man, the state of wind energy in the world, European Union countries and in Poland, as well as the next prospects for the development of this branch of the economy. The issues are presented in technical, economic and ecological aspects. It is the result of the author's scrupulous search, analyzes and achievements in the field of renewable energy sources. The book is interesting, written in an accessible way, inspiring the imagination. Until recently, some of the solutions presented in it were only futuristic projects, and today they are large-scale usable devices. The text is illustrated with many colorful photographs and boards. For readers it will be a fascinating reading that is easy to read.
