History of wind power
Overview20th centuryAntiquityEarly Middle AgesLate Middle Ages18th century19th century21st century
Development in the 20th century might be usefully divided into the periods: • 1900–1973, when widespread use of individual wind generators competed against fossil fuel plants and centrally-generated electricity• 1973–onward, when the oil price crisis spurred investigation of non-petroleum energy sources.
