Small wind turbines (SWTs) are, however, still visible around the world for a variety of appli-cations, including electric power generation for households, industrial centers, farms, and isolated communities; com-bining with other energy sources and storage in hybrid en-ergy.

Spiral welding is when the steel used to make the tower is curled into a cylinder; essentially, these towers are built from meters-wide steel plates.

As wind flows across the turbine's rotor blades, which function similarly to airplane wings, it creates an aerodynamic force that turns the blades. This motion spins a rotor connected to a generator that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, allowing us to power homes and.
