Combining wind turbines with wave, solar and tidal devices on shared platforms reduces construction costs, improves stability ...

We are finally learning how to farm the sky for energy. All this time, the fastest, most consistent winds on Earth have stayed just out of reach. They swirled thousands of feet above our heads while ...

The future of renewable energy might be in the sky. Researchers in China have reportedly tested a new, gravity-defying wind turbine system that they say could generate power from the airspace above ...

Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's ... a 20,000 cubic-meter power-generating airship, floating 6,560 ft (2,000 meters) above the ground. Introducing the S2000 stratospheric airborne ...

A blimp-like turbine rising 6,560 feet above China has generated electricity from powerful high-altitude winds, hinting at a new frontier in renewable energy that could reshape crowded cities.

In order for wind turbines to function effectively across wide ranges of wind conditions, you’ll need what’s known as blade pitch control. Lucy Pao, the Palmer Endowed Chair Professor in the ...

The share of wind power in total electric power generation is expected to increase, and with that comes a requirement for this carbon-free source to be more reliable. The most important component of a ...

IEA-PVPS and IEA-Wind have updated their guidance on how to conduct system impact studies of solar-wind power systems. The “Recommended practices for Wind/PV integration studies” report covers ...

Wind farm owners who earn huge payouts from gaming Britain’s energy system face a crackdown under new reforms proposed by power grid bosses.
