It can be said that at the present time there is more than ever a need for energy at the global level to support the activities undertaken by the industrial branches as well as by the human communities. The possibilities of obtaining energy are limited and if we refer to the burning of fossil fuels, they have a direct effect on the environment, contributing decisively to the increase in global temperature values. Therefore, special attention must be paid to alternative methods that can be used to obtain energy; here we are talking about the action of the wind, the sun, or the force of sea waves. This paper presents the possibilities of obtaining energy from the wind action, on different models of wind turbines, with specific efficiency values for each of them, the main projects that have been carried out for capture both on land and offshore facilities, some of the most important onshore and offshore wind turbine parks established worldwide and for the Romanian area, but also the main results obtained at the present time in terms of energy amounts of these wind facilities.
