Think of wind turbines and massive blades spinning above Kansas prairies or off Danish coastlines are probably what comes to mind, but Minnesota-based Janulus has developed something a little more ...

Where conventional large horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) have to support a large mass of motor and generators in a nacelle at the top of their enormous towers, WWW's design keeps all its ...

Wind power has become a legitimate source of energy over the past few decades as larger, more efficient turbine designs have produced ever-increasing amounts of power. But even though the industry saw ...

As well as generating renewable energy, wind turbines might soon remove air pollution too. Zhong Lin Wang at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta and his colleagues have developed a ...

Vertical axis wind turbines, which may have fewer effects on birds and nearby people, could increase public support for new wind energy installations, new research suggests. With global carbon ...

Even a single wind turbine can produce significant amounts of energy, given the right conditions. Wind power in the form of windmills has been around for a long time. Relatively short towers once ...
