Which renewable energy source is derived from wind?

Wind energy is harnessed from the kinetic energy produced by the movement of air. Wind turbines convert the energy of moving air into electricity. This process involves using large blades that capture wind energy; as the wind moves these blades, they turn a rotor connected to a generator, which produces electrical power. Wind energy is classified as a renewable energy source since it relies on the natural and continuously occurring phenomenon of wind, which is generated by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun.

Other renewable energy sources, such as solar energy, hydro energy, and geothermal energy, are derived from different natural processes: solar energy from sunlight, hydro energy from the flow of water, and geothermal energy from the Earth's internal heat. Each of these sources contributes to sustainable energy production, but only wind energy specifically comes from the movement of air, making it unique among the options presented.
