The first wind turbine for electricity production was built in Scotland in July 1887 by Prof James Blyth of Anderson's College, Glasgow. Blyth's 10 m high, cloth-sailed wind turbine was installed in his holiday cottage at Marykirk in Kincardineshire.

A vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) is a type of where the main rotor shaft is set transverse to the wind while the main components are located at the base of the turbine. This arrangement allows the generator and gearbox to be located close to the ground, facilitating service and repair. VAWTs do not need to be pointed into the wind, which removes the need for wind-sensing and orientation mechanisms. Major drawb.

Wind turbines, consisting of blades, a nacelle, and a shaft, can turn on their own when there is wind. The difference in air pressure between the two sides of the blade creates lift and drag, which cause the rotor to.
