Source d'énergie, telle que celle fournie par une éolienne, dont la production peut varier considérablement sur de courtes périodes en raison de l'impossibilité de prévoir sa fourniture sur une base constante. 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9nergie%20intermittente

L'énergie éolienne est une énergie intermittente, puisque le vent n'est pas constant. Il faut donc prévoir d'autres sources ou stocks d'énergie pour faire face aux pénuries de vent, dans le cadre d'une fourniture constante d'électricité. 3, record 1, French, - %C3%A9nergie%20intermittente

Parmi les énergies renouvelables tirant leur source du Soleil, l'énergie éolienne semble aujourd'hui la plus prometteuse pour la production d'électricité. [Plusieurs] pays construisent de grandes éoliennes pouvant délivrer des puissances électriques de plusieurs mégawatts. 5, record 2, French, - %C3%A9nergie%20%C3%A9olienne

Energía eólica, esta energía es una consecuencia evidente de la energía solar, misma que al calentar en diferentes puntos la atmósfera terrestre se producen vientos que pueden accionar «papalotes», sin embargo se debe aprovechar cuando está disponible ya sea para bombear agua y después producir energía eléctrica o producir energía eléctrica directamente, pero el problema de esta energía es que puede ser intermitente y dificulta su utilización así que es preferible acumularla, por lo general se almacena como energía electroquímica. 3, record 2, Spanish, - energ%C3%ADa%20e%C3%B3lica
