A Chinese green technology and wind power giant has made a significant breakthrough after revealing that its innovative ...

October 5, 2019 For many environmental enthusiasts, horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) — the kind that look like windmills slowly spinning in the distance — are a pretty familiar sight.

The Wind Energy Research Department at the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) set out to increase localization rates ...

Finally, the system also makes it possible for multiple towers to network, that is, to get power from the same generator. Utility-scale availability of Invelox is slated for 2014.

The claim: Wind turbine generators typically only last three to four years Wind turbines, which contributed more than 9% of U.S. electricity in 2021, last roughly 20 to 25 years before they must ...

Wind energy isn’t quite as common of an alternative energy source as solar, at least for small installations. It’s usually much easier just to throw a few panels and a battery together … ...

The KidWind Project is run out of Michael Arquin’s basement in St. Paul, MN, and is all about educating kids about wind power. One part of this is offering really cool wind turbine kits from ...

Gigantic, floating wind turbines as tall as New York’s famed 30 Rockefeller Plaza could unlock more than double the current US energy demand.

Also, wind turbine technology has changed greatly over the past 10 years, as engineers have developed more efficient models and gained experience in siting windmills. The 2009 material is dated.

The Vineyard Wind 1 offshore wind project, already years behind its original schedule, is now exporting power from 17 of its planned 62 turbines and plans have construction completed by the end of the ...

To understand why the offshore wind industry needs rare earth metals, you have to understand how a turbine works. Wind turbines are essentially steel towers topped with long, propellor-like blades.
