An "Eolienne" is a French term for a wind turbine, a device that converts wind energy into electrical power. These structures typically consist of large blades mounted on a tall tower, which rotate when the wind blows. The movement of the blades drives a generator that produces electricity, making eoliennes a key component of renewable energy systems. Eoliennes are often found in wind farms, where multiple turbines work together to generate significant amounts of energy. They contribute to reducing reliance on fossil fuels and help combat climate change by providing a cleaner alternative to traditional energy sources like coal and natural gas.
