Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Llewellyn King has been a player in the energy space since 1970. Jimmy Dean, the country musician, actor and entrepreneur, ...

The generator resistance can be managed by the microsecond to control the speed of the turbine. Thus, whichever way the wind's blowing, the floating double VAWT passively tilts to an optimal angle, ...

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 ...

The awareness of a greener future and its benefits is getting all the right attention in Europe. With the current climate conditions and with energy bills skyrocketing, every other person in the ...

Are we stuck in a rut when it comes to wind turbine design? For decades, horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs) have dominated the renewable energy landscape, towering over fields and oceans as the ...

CEO at Freen OU, a small wind turbine manufacturer. We're delivering sustainable energy projects across EU, Middle East, Africa & Asia. I believe that the role of renewable energy has never been more ...

EPFL researchers developed optimal pitch profiles for vertical-axis wind turbines using a genetic learning algorithm. The new pitch profiles resulted in a 200% increase in turbine efficiency and a 77% ...
