Wind

Wind is a sustainable and renewable energy source that generates mechanical power through wind turbines. While advantageous relative to other non-renewable power sources, wind energy is challenged by the cost of turbines and wind infrastructure. Advanced materials such as wind turbine adhesives and wind blade bonding solutions help improve wind energy.
