This article provides an in-depth analysis of the current status, growth trends, ...
Is Wind Energy Actually Sustainable? Wind energy is usually considered a cleaner alternative to traditional sources of fossil fuel and is renewable, with much-reduced carbon emissions. However, its full range of implications is worth considering. Any discussion on the sustainability of wind energy necessarily involves wind turbine technology, recycling, and natural effects. Let’s explore ...

At a time when the importance of turning to sustainable energy sources and reducing our carbon footprint is increasingly recognised, offshore wind farms represent a ray of hope amid growing concerns about the energy crisis. They constitute a significant step forward in the search for long-term solutions in the field of renewable energies and sustainable development. In this article, we take a ...
Renewable energy meter refers to the power meter that measures the situation of renewable energy generation. Different types of renewable energy generation require different measurement products, so renewable energy meters need to be customized according to the specific application requirements. Renewable energy includes solar energy, hydro power, wind power, biomass energy, wave energy, tidal ...
Aerodynamics is an interesting and one of the most challenging fields of science and engineering. You can even win $1 million if you can contribute to the understanding of the underlying math. Aerodynamics is generally described with the Navier-Stokes-Equations, but even the fastest super computer in the world is not capable to solve these equations directly for a reasonable engineering problem. ...
Renewable Energy Search for renewable energy which would address the needs of the future has been an important issue world over. Zen Engineering has recently collaborated with various important companies locally and abroad, to supply an integrated package for generating renewable energy, based on the clients ...
The oldest rotary windmills are considered to have been used regularly in agriculture and other purposes since 2000 B.C. by peoples of what would today be China and the Middle East who already sensed what the German physicist Albert Betz, the father of physics governing modern wind turbines, called The Theory of Wind Energy, presented and published in his book “Wind-Energie” at the ...
Tcharge regulation can be relatively simple: When the I-'1/batteries are full, the controller disconnects the PV r array. Adding wind or microhydro to the system makes charge regulation more complicated, since turbines may overspecd if unloaded. Often, diversion control is the solution. Off-grid "hybrid" combinations of solar, wind, or microhydro have been around for decades. These renewable ...
How procurement strategies, manufacturing costs and new technology stack up against development risk in Offshore Wind Projects. Offshore wind is changing, and it is changing for the better. In 2006, offshore wind deployment costs started rising significantly, from £1.5m/ MW, in 2016 prices, to over £4m/MW in 2012, without a clear indication as to what the price ceiling would be. ...
A more efficient and less intrusive wind turbine design has been welcomed by two of the UK industry’s biggest critics and government regulators. A new bladeless wind turbine that promises to be more efficient, less visually intrusive, and safer for birdlife than conventional turbines has been welcomed by two of the UK wind energy industry’s most vocal critics. The RSPB and the ...
Monopiles will be Europe’s dominant offshore wind foundation for the next five years despite increasing turbine capacity, Tim Fischer, Head of Wind at German consultancy Ramboll, said. Monopile projects have dominated the offshore wind market but windfarms are moving towards larger turbines requiring larger foundations. While many proponents are promoting the value of jacket foundations ...
The technology takes advantage of vorticity to generate electricity Vorticity is a wind effect that creates a pattern of spinning vortices Bladeless design could reduce manufacturing costs by 53 per cent Prototype ‘Vortex Mini’ can capture nearly half of the wind’s power Today’s wind turbines have colossal blades that spin at speeds of more than 200mph (320 ...
The solar and wind innovations that got us where we are today — and those waiting in the wings — point to a hopeful future. Inside a sprawling single-story office building in Bedford, Mass., in a secret room known as the Growth Hall, the future of solar power is cooking at more than 2,500 °F. Behind closed doors and downturned blinds, custom-built ovens with ambitious names like ...

2015’s official Wind Energy Forecast for the South African market was released today detailing the key market trends in 2015 for wind energy in in the country. Leading experts from Vestas, Siemens, Barclays, and Green Cape discussed key questions facing this year’s wind energy market inside the 8 page report. This January, experts from across the industry were asked five key ...
Using the Lagrange principle, the nonlinear dynamical equation of wind turbine generator drive system is presented, which considers nonlinear stiffness of the drive system. The stability of autonomous system is analysed by the Jacobian matrix. The stability of wind turbine generator drive system is analysed by using bifurcation and chaos theories. Finally, a numerical method is employed to ...
A new picture is emerging in the U.S. power sector. In 2007, electricity generation from coal peaked, dropping by close to 4 percent annually between 2007 and 2011. Over the same time period, nuclear generation fell slightly, while natural gas-fired electricity grew by some 3 percent annually and hydropower by 7 percent. Meanwhile, wind-generated electricity grew by a whopping 36 percent each ...
A huge number of wind generators are going to be connected with the existing network in the near future. ...
This paper investigates the operation and control of multiple Distributed Generation (DG) systems interconnected to the utility in the form of microgrid. The developed model of the microgrid consists of microturbine generation system, converter-based DG system with stiff DC source, synchronous-generator-based DG system and wind ...
This paper deals with a wind energy conversion system (WECS), based on a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) and an electromechanical active power filter (APF). ...
The main objective of the study is to estimate wind power potential of Turkey and provide suitable data for evaluating potential wind power by using the wind data collected at 23 different wind-monitoring stations. In this study, energy and exergy analyses of wind power are used to estimate wind power potential in these areas. Exergy analysis of wind power is investigated according to air ...
