With over 350,000 wind turbines currently in use globally, wind continues to be one of the fastest growing forms of renewable energy. In 2021, 93.6 GW of new installations brought global cumulative ...
This means the system works with any old wind turbine design – and it can scale to handle more or less any size of turbine tower. You still need a crane ship, but it's a comparatively tiny one.
In order for wind turbines to function effectively across wide ranges of wind conditions, you’ll need what’s known as blade pitch control. Lucy Pao, the Palmer Endowed Chair Professor in the ...
Diffuser-augmented wind turbine systems represent an innovative approach to renewable energy harvesting by utilising an additional aerodynamic structure – the diffuser – to enhance airflow over the ...
The share of wind power in total electric power generation is expected to increase, and with that comes a requirement for this carbon-free source to be more reliable. The most important component of a ...
