Join our pv magazine webinar, in partnership with Soltec, for solutions to prepare against extreme wind loads, through an exploration of the aeroelastic effects in tracker design analysis, including ...

In this pv magazine webinar we will discuss the necessity and complexity of establishing a bespoke wind design code for single-axis PV trackers. We will also clarify how project developers and asset ...

Most of the world's greatest wind power resources are offshore – often a long way offshore, where the water's so deep that it's impractical to build typical fan-on-a-stick wind turbines with bases ...

Icelandic renewable energy company IceWind is now launching its innovative six-bladed wind-powered turbines for home use in the U.S. Wind now accounts for 7.2% of power generated in the United States, ...

Previously there has been no single software tool available on the market that covers both wind turbine and substructure design analysis in one analysis package. Now Fedem Technology and DNV Software ...

Rainier Square Tower, under construction in Seattle, is one of the buildings considered for the development of a performance-based wind design manual for tall buildings. Photo Courtesy of ...

Buildings with integrated wind turbines could generate at least 20 percent of their own energy needs, and perhaps all. They would be more power efficient than ordinary wind farms or solar powered ...

Everybody is familiar with wind tunnels and many will have seen films or pictures that depict their use in aircraft, spacecraft design, and automobile adverts showcasing how aerodynamic their cars are ...

• Gearboxes with high step-up ratios tend to give horizontal wind turbines poor efficiency when wind speeds are low. • One way to eliminate wind-turbine bird kills: Locate turbines far out at sea.
