With a hub height of 185 meters (606 feet) – equivalent to a 63-story skyscraper – the single 26-megawatt (MW) turbine can ...

In the remote and hostile realm of the Amundsen Sea Embayment, West Antarctica, powerful winds known as low-level jets (LLJs) ...

Wind turbines have quickly been adopted in Washington for their attractive renewable energy generated by harnessing the wind.

Wind turbines kill a lot of birds, particularly eagles and other raptors. The exact number is unknown, because many of the world’s wind farms don’t monitor bird deaths. One mitigation idea to reduce ...

Ever since the first two-wheelers took to the road, manufacturers have pushed the limits of engineering, chasing ever-higher top speeds in the quest to be number one. With the eventual rise of bikes ...

Abstract: Doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbines connected to capacitive series-compensated transmission lines are prone to exhibit oscillatory behavior. The phenomena is called ...

Abstract: The wind farm layout optimisation problem involves finding the optimal locations for wind turbines on a wind farm site in order to minimise the so-called “wake effect”. The wake effect is ...

Modvion is building on the success of its record-breaking wood-based wind turbine tower built in 2023 by raising the bar another 16 meters. The Sweden-based company has received design certification ...

The CADEMO Project, located in state waters roughly 2.8 miles off Point Arguello, is expected to host four wind turbines capable of generating 12-15 megawatts of renewable electricity apiece.

a leading wind turbine maker, which has its headquarters in Aarhus in Jutland. If Empire Wind is permanently shut down, Vestas will lose a manufacturing order likely worth around $1 billion for 54 ...

Danish energy giant Ørsted has canceled plans for the Hornsea 4 offshore wind farm, dealing a major blow to the UK’s renewable energy ambitions. Hornsea 4, at a massive 2.4 gigawatts (GW ...

Unlike the Eastern Seaboard, where turbines can be bolted into the seabed, the continental shelf off the coast in the Pacific plunges steeply. That means offshore wind farms in California will ...
