In this article we learned about the wind turbine. Ageing is a fact of life. A wind was sources that renewable energy. We used the wind turbine to produce the energy over lifetime, the electricity. In this paper talk about reveal the rate of ageing of a national fleet of wind turbines using free public data for the actual and theoretical ideal load factors from the UK's 282 wind farms. Actual load factors are recorded monthly for the period of 2002–2012, covering 1686 farm-years of operation. They use NASA data to estimate the hourly wind speed at the location and hub height of each wind farm, accounting for the particular models of turbine installed. Wind turbines are found to lose 1.6 ± 0.2% of their output per year, with average load factors declining from 28.5% when new to 21% at age 19. This summary from this article to make it short. It was very interesting article to read and here are the website if anyone need read more. References resources; http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960148113005727
