The world's first offshore wind farm was installed in 1991 off the coast of Vindeby on the Danish island of Lolland. It ...
W of power can also be produced even during snowfalls, as energy this winter can be generated from the quieter TESUP Atlas ...
Discover the future of wind energy with our in-depth comparison between vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) and traditional ...
EPFL researchers developed optimal pitch profiles for vertical-axis wind turbines using a genetic learning algorithm. The new pitch profiles resulted in a 200% increase in turbine efficiency and a 77% ...
The type of wind turbine you’re used to seeing in stock photos of wind farms is called a horizontal axis wind turbine (or, HAWT). But there is another form of wind power, called a vertical axis wind ...
Lower costs, cheaper wind turbines and hurricane safe. That’s the future of offshore wind energy promised by SeaTwirl, a company that makes vertical wind turbines. These new turbines have capabilities ...
We feature a lot of off-grid power projects here at Hackaday, whether they’re a micropower harvester or something to power a whole house. Somewhere in the middle lies [esposcar90]’s 3D-printed ...
In late 2021, designer Joe Doucet unveiled a concept for an extraordinary wind turbine that looked nothing like the typical turbine dotting our landscapes. Instead of a monumental dandelion, it was ...
