I want my own wind turbine. I know how much power hides in a light breeze. I’ve seen modest winds send a 350-ton ship across miles of ocean. Small turbines mounted on the boat’s rail, little ...

Not so for distributed wind energy projects, which, at 80 to 150 feet in height, are roughly one-third the size of industrial-scale wind projects.

But they estimate to be competitive with other distributed wind resources, both in terms of cost and energy production. Larger wind turbines will always be more efficient, but Doucet believes ...

The Queen City has brought us the most futuristic wind turbine. This 5 kW portable marvel beats all photovoltaics, ensuring ...

The efficiency of wind energy production on a relatively small scale can be enhanced without relying on conventional turbine ...

A 100-foot wind turbine now dominates the skyline of Jackie Armstrong and Gary Levinson’s 80-acre Iowa property. Bought by them and installed over two weeks in the summer of 2023, the turbine ...

Distributed wind across the nation. In 2023, 16 states added 10.5 MW from 1,999 turbines, the new report notes. Most of the installed distributed wind capacity was from large turbines, which can ...

Aeromine says its unique "motionless" rooftop wind generators deliver up to 50% more energy than a solar array of the same price, while taking up just 10% of the roof space and operating more or ...

Some companies are paying low rates for renewable energy that would otherwise go unused. There’s more of that than you’d ...

The IRA funded 88% of rural wind energy grants awarded in 2023, according to a report from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.

Wind turbine and component manufacturers: ... 11.3 GW of wind, 7.2 GW of utility-scale solar, and 5.7 GW of distributed generation (e.g., rooftop and community solar) and storage capacity.
