One of Australia’s first commercial wind farms is being retired, with Pacific Blue initiating plans to decommission its ...

Warming may boost ground winds but reduce those at turbine height in the Middle East, cutting wind energy output.

Abstract: The software QBlade under General Public License is used for analysis and design of wind turbines. QBlade uses the Blade Element Momentum (BEM) method for the simulation of wind turbines and ...

Plans to install more than 15,000 solar panels on farmland near the M1 Watford Gap services have been approved. They will be ...

Abstract: The focus of most low wind turbine designers is how to maximize power extraction. Designing horizontal axis turbine for relatively low average wind speed requires power extraction at high ...

W hen the platform for a prototype floating offshore wind turbine arrived at a dock in Searsport, Maine on April 11, engineers at the University of Maine were ready to add a tower ...

Permanent Magnet Generator market grows with demand for compact, efficient systems; rising use in wind turbines and industry ...

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

It’s a familiar dilemma: you’ve bagged yourself a home with uninterrupted views and then someone else comes along and spoils ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of investigations on the application of wind, photovoltaic (PV), and hybrid wind/PV power generating systems for utilization as stand-alone systems. A simple ...

Abstract: Soft-stall control of small wind turbines is a method to protect the generation system and/or load from excessive wind speeds and wind gusts without discontinuing power generation.
