Back in 2017, GTM Research published a report on the state of the U.S. energy storage market through 2016. The study projects that by 2021 deployments of stored energy — a combination of residential, ...
U.S. adoption of offshore wind technology has been slow compared to European counterparts. Europe’s first offshore wind installation, Denmark’s Vindeby, came online in 1991 with a capacity of 4.9 MW.
Over the past decade, airborne wind energy systems (AWES) have made significant research and development advancements. Using tethered flying devices, including kites and planes, AWES convert wind ...
It can be tough to predict, and even tougher to manage. But wind-farm operators are finding success navigating around Mother Nature in cold climates. After experiencing significant wind-farm downtime ...
It is no longer true that the main advantage of VAWT is that they do not need to orient to the wind. Now their main advantages are that they can capture more wind energy, or capture wind energy more ...
The renewable energy sector is being forced to reduce the levelized cost of electricity (LCoE). The wind energy industry is striving to match or exceed the LCoE of traditional energy sources. Due to ...
They say all good things come to pass and wind farms are no exception. For Alberta’s Cowley Ridge Wind Farm, Canada’s first and oldest commercial wind facility, the end of its operating life came ...
Each area breaks into other factors and requirements. As the wind-turbine industry matures, it is likely these factors will drive wind turbine and drivetrain designs to converge on a small number of ...
The offshore wind industry in North America stands on the cusp of transformative growth, with considerable progress made toward the U.S. goal to deploy 30 GW of offshore wind by 2030. Yet, as the ...
The last decade has led to strong growth in the wind industry. The overall capacity of wind turbines installed worldwide at the beginning of 2018 was 539 GW, according to the Global Wind Energy ...
