The wind turns the blades, which in turn spins a generator to create #WindPower electricity.

Here’s how wind turbines work: wind turns the blades around a shaft inside the turbine, which spins a generator. Energy then travels through cables under the seabed and connects to an offshore substation, and then to a power station on land. https://cbsn.ws/3pYVxDL | 60 Minutes
