In this paper, they considered the process of mechanical processing of parts, during which heat release occurs. High temperatures can lead to reduced tool life, reduced accuracy and processing quality. Therefore, lubricating and cooling technological means (LCTM) are supplied to the processing zone, which reduces friction forces and removes the released heat.  LCTM used in machining for cooling and lubrication should be cleaned to a greater or lesser extent depending on the required fluid purity. The fluid temperature must be maintained at a constant level, if necessary. Otherwise, the accuracy of processing needed (surface cleanliness, dimensional stability) will not be achieved. Regeneration of LCTM occurs by their circulation through filters. Pumps are used to ensure circulation. The pumps are driven by electric motors that consume electricity. It is proposed to reduce the costs of LCTM provision by using cheap, environmentally friendly, safe types of energy in the process of circulation and building automatic control systems for LCTM circulation. One of the ways to get affordable energy is to use wind turbines. The article discusses the existing system of LCTM circulation and possible ways of wind energy use in it. The analysis of existing wind turbines and wind power plants has been carried out. The advantages and disadvantages of vane, rotary and orthogonal wind turbines are indicated. It is proposed to create a wind power plant that circulates liquid through filters, which can operate both from a wind engine and from a non-wind engine.
