A design firm from New York, Atelier DNA, has developed a concept that uses cattail like stalks instead of traditional turbine blades for harnessing the power of wind. Planned for the city of Masdar, ...

Humanity has been harvesting energy from the wind for centuries. The practice goes back at least to 8th century Persia where the first known historical records of windmills came, but likely extends ...

Virtually every week there are articles about new and innovative methods for harvesting wind energy. And every week more megawatts of capacity from three-blade horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWT) ...

"[It] is already running at full capacity." 'Self-erecting' wind turbine project hits major testing milestone first appeared ...

According to MarketsandMarkets, 'Wind Turbine Composites Market by Fiber Type (Glass, Carbon), Resin Type (Epoxy, ...

PALMER -- Two spinning turbines dot the sky above Palmer, putting the quaint colony-era town on the forefront of a grass-roots make-your-own energy movement sweeping Alaska. One of the wind-power ...

Researchers have modeled the fluid dynamics of multi-rotor wind turbines via high-resolution numerical simulations. The simulations demonstrate a clear advantage for a turbine model with four rotors.

When most of today’s wind projects were developed, first costs were the focus; operations and maintenance (O&M) costs were largely unknown. Now, with hundreds of turbine models in operation—sometimes ...

As Massachusetts races to meet its clean energy goals, will more wind turbines dot the ridge lines of the Berkshires? Ask Francis Pullaro that, and the president of RENEW Northeast starts to chuckle. ...
