Scenarios about 'wind power'
The harnessing of air movement to generate mechanical power or electricity, dating back to sailboats and windmills first used thousands of years ago. Wind power evolved from traditional applications in grinding grain and pumping water to modern utility-scale wind farms generating clean renewable energy. In alternate history scenarios, earlier or more widespread adoption of wind technology could significantly alter energy dependencies, environmental outcomes, and geopolitical power structures based on fossil fuel resources.
