Yes, but storing it in electric cells or batteries after it has been generated.

An efficient was of using wind energy is offsetting use of combustibles when they begin generating. This is the method used in Denmark. The wind energy generated in their wind fields offsets their imported energy while the wind is strong enough to run. The reduces their load on the grid they are on for that time being. So it's not really stored energy I suppose, but it can be roughly explained that you store it in a way through preservation of combustibles for later use.

Wind energy is the force of wind on blades creating a turbine within to rotate. This rotation can produce electrical energy and it is this that can be stored in cells and batteries. Wind energy itself cannot be stored but it can be converted into electrical energy which can be stored.

wind energy no but you can convert wind energy into electrical energy store that energy and then use that electrical to power a fan which will then create "wind energy"

windmills they store power in generators and create electric power, used in WA an CA

get a bunch of politicians in one room then have them talk about immigration, all that hot air could power a city for months...
