Many people wonder if wind turbines can function in cold weather. The answer is more complex than they might hope. Here are some specifics to consider and examples of relevant research.
China Plans to Build a New Wind Farm and Develops Progressively Larger Turbines
A recently released report from World Forum Offshore Wind clarified that China is quickly becoming a major player in the offshore wind power market. The data indicated more than 70% of new global offshore wind power came from China in 2022.
XCA 2600, World's Strongest All-Terrain Crane Developed by XCMG, Sets New Wind Power Hoisting Record
This progressive approach aims to provide highly efficient solutions for the installation of a super wind turbine and customize operations for different construction environment and application scenarios.
ArcVera's study finds long-distance wake losses offshore to be much greater than expected
Using validated, high-fidelity long-range wake loss modeling, ArcVera Renewables found in their new study that commonly used engineering wake models vastly underpredict energy losses due to external wakes.
What Is the Carbon Footprint of Wind Turbines?
Until America develops enough renewable power to support all industrial production, turbines may continue generating atmospheric pollution. Over time, professionals predict the effects will decrease as society transitions away from fossil fuel-reliant energy.
Wind is now America's largest renewable energy provider and the top choice for new utility-scale power
Annual market report shows wind industry topped 100 GW, employed 120,000 Americans, invested $14 billion in new projects, and provided $1.6 billion in local payments to communities and landowners last year.
Wind powers opportunity: American Wind Week 2019 kicks off August 11
During Wind Week, the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) and supporters of wind energy highlight the many ways that wind powers opportunity at dozens of events across the country and online with #AmericanWindWeek.
New towers and hub heights for North America
Hybrid Towers from Max Bögl Wind AG are already known in Europe and Asia for their high hub heights. Now it's time for the US wind power industry to benefit from the modular tower concept as well.
