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 ...

A novel 7-ft.-diameter wind turbine has set a record by producing 5.3 kW in a 32.5-mph wind. The design, from Selsam Innovations, Fullerton, Calif. (selsam.com), puts several rotors on a single carbon ...

Jeffrey S. of Layton, UT is the creator of the Wind Shifting Windmill, a two-part windmill designed to increase wind speed with stationary blades by shifting wind from one side of the vertical ...

As the world innovates to become more sustainable and electrified, the demand for renewable energy generation grows. Wind energy has become key in increasing the renewable energy generation mix of ...

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 ...

Most of the world's greatest wind power resources are offshore – often a long way offshore, where the water's so deep that it's impractical to build typical fan-on-a-stick wind turbines with bases ...

Wind energy is increasingly seen as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, as it contributes to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. However, the rapid expansion of wind farms has raised ...
