Electricity and heat generated from sun is of course solar energy, whereas wind is the natural after effect of the same "solar energy" that strikes on Earth continuously. Again, to be precise the sun''s energy that is converted to mechanical energy and to electricity is termed as wind energy, or wind power when it rotates the turbine.
