which means that the turbines can be sited where winds are stronger and more consistent. Its test lab S1 sits on a depth of 35 meters (115 feet). Here’s how SeaTwirl’s vertical-axis wind ...

Savonius-type vertical-axis wind turbines are low-maintenance and can operate even in low wind speeds. However, you will need a good battery bank to store energy and also a charge controller for ...

SeaTwirl is one of several companies developing vertical-axis wind turbines, and one of just a couple developing them for offshore use. A quick refresher on what vertical axis means: the turbines ...

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 ...

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 ...

New vertical axis wind turbines that could be a game-changer for distributed generation powering farms, factories and apartment blocks are being taken for a trial spin by a team in Australia. Flinders ...
