The energy captured by the rotor of a wind machine is transformed into mechanical energy initially available in rotary motion.
This movement can be used to drive devices that transform into other forms of energy: mechanical, electrical, thermal or potential. The most effective applications are those in which one reaches the end-use energy with the least [...]
This is exactly what we don’t want to see in a video about a wind turbine.
Wind turbines have a mechanism to decelerate their mechanisms once strong winds are hitting, it is obvious this was a defective turbine.
Rest assured the manufactures will take the case in their hands and hopefully it won’t happen again.
Three wind turbine blades have been successfully installed on the Bahrain World Trade Center, a twin skyscraper complex. This is the first time that a commercial development has integrated large-scale wind turbines within its design to harness the power of the wind.
The three massive turbines, measuring 29 meters in diameter, are supported by bridges spanning [...]
The company Kettle Foods located in Oregon, US makes baked potato chips and and snacks in natural way, and has intalled18 wind turbines in the roof their factory.
In agreement with the company AeroVironment, which made and installed these turbines, says that the system of turbines is designed for an easier and faster installation in the [...]
Al Gore has deployed his personal computer and Keynote presentation for 20 years to detail global warming. But the former vice president and Nobel laureate used his latest Seattle visit to deliver a message that boils down to two words: Delay kills.
As American administrations have blown hot and cold, the country has lost its lead [...]
Scotland enters the world of renewable energies with the construction of two wind energy plants, one in Dumfires the other in Galloway. Scottish government approved a proyect form Scottish Power to build 71 wind energy turbines.
The project will cost 406.2 million de dollars, and as soon as it is operating it will generate 213 mW [...]
A new laser fiber can reduce wear and increase the efficiency of wind turbines using a sensor that can detect the wind to a kilometer away. The product is called Catch The Wind, and is a device that allows the turbine to adjust the strength and direction of the wind before it reaches the turbine.
Wind [...]
The construction of 31 offshore wind farms to be ready in 2012 is not accepted by all Spaniards.
Inhabitants of Cadiz, Galicia and Tarragona, Spain, are not entirely happy with the project. Their complaint: The wind turbines ruin the view.
For some people wind turbines can make the landscape ugly, not only in the mountains but also [...]
Chinese designers have shown during the Asian Wind Energy Exhibition, the first wind turbine that runs on magnetic levitation. International observers have considered this achievement as a step forward in terms of intellectual property rights in China.
The device, called “Maglev generator,” or Maglev Wind turbine, has been announced as a peak achievement in the evolution [...]
Today we will show you a wind turbine for domestic use that is already on the market (unfortunately only in the U.S. market, but it is a step), the Mariahpower Windspire.
In this case, we have a 1.2 kilowatt wind turbine with a price of around $ 5000, able to provide between 25 and 30% of [...]
