As our technology advances, new types of turbines for wind power generation are emerging. The Helix 3.0 can capture wind ...

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 ...

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, ...

The world's strongest winds race high in the sky, but that doesn't mean they're out of reach as a potentially potent energy source. Flying, swooping and floating turbines are being developed to turn ...

Has affordable, practical home wind power generation become a reality? The Honeywell Windgate wind turbine from EarthTronics looks like it could be a contender. Developers EarthTronics and Honeywell ...

Discover how to build a mini vertical axis wind turbine using simple materials such as a wooden stick, metallic sheet, PVC pipe, and an aluminum frame. This step-by-step guide demonstrates the ...

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. ...
