Wind turbines are a crucial component in the production of clean and renewable energy. They harness the power of the wind to generate electricity that can be used to power homes, businesses, and even entire communities. But how do wind turbines actually work? In this article, we’ll take a detailed look at the different components…

The history of wind turbines dates back to the late 19th century when inventors began experimenting with using the wind to generate electricity. These early models were primarily used for pumping water and milling grain and were relatively small in size and limited in their capabilities. However, as technology advanced and our understanding of the…

A recent bid to revive wind farm plans in the south of Scotland has been rejected due to the height of the turbines involved. The decision, made by Dumfries and Galloway Council (DGC) and later upheld by the Scottish federal government., sets an important precedent for the future of wind power in Scotland. The original…

Inpex Corp, a Japanese oil and natural gas producer, said it has agreed to acquire stakes in two wind farms offshore the Netherlands from a subsidiary of fellow Japanese company Mitsubishi Corp. Inpex will be buying a 50% stake in the 129-MW Luchterduinen offshore wind farm and a 15% stake in the 731.5-MW Borssele III…

On Tuesday, German wind turbine maker Nordex SE said it has secured an order from regular customer Wpd AG to supply 47 MW of turbines for a wind farm in Sweden. The German company has ordered eight N163/5.X turbines for the Stollsaterberget project, inhabited between the Varmland and Dalarna provinces in western Sweden, near to…

Wind Energy is a great green energy option, so it’s one of the fastest-growing energy sources in the world. A wind turbine is the main element responsible for generating energy with net-zero carbon emissions. However, many challenges arise while dealing with the end-of-life of turbine blades after losing their efficiency. To provide a deep insight…

Wind power is one of the most significant sustainable power production solutions to tackle the climate crisis. Equinor has demonstrated that the output is better and more sustainable on the high seas, opening up entirely new areas of possibility. It takes about 40 minutes for the Equinor company’s small team to reach this destination on…

The UAE-based company Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) has partnered with GE to establish a joint steering committee to create and implement a decarbonization roadmap. The goal of the agreement is to develop a plan for using hydrogen as a fuel source for the natural gas turbines used by EGA in the UAE. In addition to…

A decade-long race to bring down the cost of generating wind power may not continue, as it would decrease the financial motivation of turbine producers to continue investing in new technologies, warns the head of Siemens Gamesa. In recent years the increase in investments in green energy to tackle climate change has assisted decrease the…

Imagine the power goes out when you are at home on a rainy night, watching TV and running the washing machine! It will be so frustrating if your work is hampered due to the outage. Consider the same scenario, but with a rooftop solar energy system that includes battery storage. There will be no impact…
