A cutting-edge vertical axis turbine (VAWT) will undergo trials near Adelaide through a partnership between Australia's Flinders University and start-up VAWT-X Energy. The team has developed and ...
A wildly innovative turbine that could halve the cost of offshore wind is set to go into testing in Norway. The 19-m (62-ft), 30-kW, contra-rotating vertical-axis turbine is a prototype of a design ...
Discover the future of wind energy as we compare traditional horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWT) with the innovative IceWind vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). This video explores the key differences ...
Researchers have used a genetic learning algorithm to identify optimal pitch profiles for the blades of vertical-axis wind turbines, which despite their high energy potential, have until now been ...
