26 August 2008 – A wind turbine built from waste has earned a University of Portsmouth (UK) student a first class honours degree. Max Robson, 22, built his prototype for less than $40 with waste ...

As wind blows it generates kinetic energy, which is energy from movement. This turns the blades on a turbine, which then causes a shaft (drive shaft) within the system to rotate (view diagram below).

Equinor, and Dominion Energy have resumed construction on their massive offshore wind projects, nearly a month after Trump ...

AMES, Iowa – Grant Schmitz, eyes inches from a 6.5-by-12-foot panel of ultra-high performance concrete, studied the smooth surface for tiny cracks. He and other research engineers carefully marked ...

Last year, I got to visit the Bekevar Wind Farm in Saskatchewan, Canada, months ahead of its completion in November 2024. So, what did I discover on my turbine travels? What can we learn from Bekevar?
