A new manufacturing technique developed by Concordia researchers could make small wind turbines lighter, less expensive and ...

Swedish wind turbine maker SeaTwirl got the go-ahead to test its 1 megawatt (MW) S2X vertical-axis floating offshore prototype in Norway. In March 2022, Norway’s Ministry of Energy gave approval to ...

A new 4D-printing technique creates lightweight composite wind turbine blades that spin faster, weigh less, and could reduce ...

SeaTwirl floating wind turbines assemble via flat-pack shipping to simplify deep-water installation and bypass the need for ...

Researchers at Concordia University have developed a new way to make small wind turbines, ...

Compact (H-type) vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) are not as familiar as their horizontal-axis, propeller-type cousins. The two have their origins in the windmills of the 12th century, and even ...

Research carried out by Oxford Brookes University has found that vertical turbine designs could make large wind farms more effective. In the study, the researchers compared traditional wind turbines ...

Indeed, it's two vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) in one, tuned to rotate in opposite directions. With one turbine attached to the generator's rotor, and the other to the stator, you double their ...

The type of wind turbine you’re used to seeing in stock photos of wind farms is called a horizontal axis wind turbine (or, HAWT). But there is another form of wind power, called a vertical axis wind ...

Researchers at Concordia University have developed a new manufacturing method that could make small wind turbines lighter, ...
