Wind power has always been a trade off between clean energy and the visual, acoustic, and ecological cost of giant spinning blades. A new generation of radical designs promises something different, ...

As the world innovates to become more sustainable and electrified, the demand for renewable energy generation grows. Wind energy has become key in increasing the renewable energy generation mix of ...

The WTIV will support the installation of large offshore wind turbines at the Empire Wind project off the coast of New York, ...

Until recently wind turbines have been relegated to land, with projects starting to emerge that harness the powerful offshore winds that come from the sea. The Department of Energy (DoE) is hoping to ...

Drag-based wind energy design. Aiming to translate its expertise in manufacturing monocoque, ribbed components with thermoplastic microspheres, Xenecore is working to develop a fan-shaped, drag-based ...

Wind turbines usually jut up from the ground like giant pinwheels. Now a company in China is exploring a new form factor: flying wind turbines. These zeppelin-like aircraft float high in the sky, ...

People interested in reducing their carbon footprint, along with their monthly energy costs, have an array of options to consider. One of them is wind power. If you've narrowed down your options and ...

A study by energy industry experts showed that an average wind turbine generator lasts around 25 to 75 years. A spokesperson for the wind farm mentioned in the post said its wind turbine generators ...

The Netherlands has increasingly relied on offshore wind to provide electricity while also taking steps to mitigate the environmental impact of wind turbines.

(AGL), winds are stronger and much, much more consistent than they are at surface. Even if the Earth were a perfect sphere, there’d be a sluggish boundry layer at ...
