Wind power, a key source of renewable energy, relies on large turbines to generate electricity. When designing and ...

A bill aiming to regulate how close wind turbines in certain counties in Oklahoma can be to someone's home is moving forward.

The PROWESS research, provides several surprising insights that could save the wind energy sector millions of euros.

Research by the Met Office and Newcastle University shows power outage predictions in windstorms improved when accounting for ...

Ahead of WindEurope’s annual event in Copenhagen this April, Christoph Zipf looks at the bottlenecks in Europe’s progress to achieving renewable energy targets.

A Record-Breaking Phenomenon Wind is an ever-present natural force that shapes our environment in countless ways. However, ...

For instance, a CAPE value significantly above 1000 J/kg suggests a highly unstable atmosphere, making it conducive for storms to develop. Conversely, lower CAPE values might result in weaker storms ...

A wind turbine is a bad investment if you don't get enough wind to make it spin, but some models have very low cut-in speeds (the minimum wind speed needed to make them spin) of less than five mph ...

If one wind farm is caught in the ‘shadow’ of another’s wake, the lower wind speed will mean it generates less power, reducing revenues. One wind farm 'waking' another is sometimes known as ‘wind ...

"With the bigger turbines, they operate at a much lower wind speed. And so that enables you to double or triple the acreage in the world where wind is economically viable," said Lundstrom. "You're ...
