Beyond clean power, offshore wind is fixing the ocean. Learn why aquatic wind turbines are doing a lot more than generating ...

As wind blows it generates kinetic energy, which is energy from movement. This turns the blades on a turbine, which then causes a shaft (drive shaft) within the system to rotate (view diagram below).

Health benefits of using wind energy instead of fossil fuels could quadruple if the most polluting power plants are selected for dialing down, new study finds. Nearly 10 percent of today’s electricity ...

It’s commonly believed that new wind power generation will displace coal and natural gas-fueled power plants and thereby avoid all their associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions such as carbon ...

" has gathered more than 1,000 members on Facebook. The group grew in size after the Iowa County Board of Supervisors approved an agreement with Diamond Trail Wind Energy, in which 78 wind turbines ...

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.

OKLAHOMA CITY — Wind energy makes economic sense locally, environmental sense nationally and security sense globally, proponents said Wednesday. Speakers at Revolution: Oklahoma Wind Energy Conference ...

It has been 20 years since Fairhaven voters amended the town’s bylaws in May 2004 to allow for the siting of commercial and municipal wind facilities. The project was put out for bid in the spring of ...
