A new artificial intelligence system has designed a wind turbine for the first time in history, according to its developer. The British company EvoPhase claims that its AI has thrown all the ...

Inspired by the “bumpy” flippers of humpback whales, the team of Frank Fish, Stephen Dewar, and Philip Watts, innovated turbine blades with three-dimensional bumps on their leading edges that alter ...

For many environmental enthusiasts, horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) — the kind that look like windmills slowly spinning in the distance — are a pretty familiar sight. Unfortunately, there are ...

There are plenty of places outside where you may like to have a project requiring electricity that may not get enough sun for solar power to be viable. Perhaps wind power could be used instead? [Greg] ...

As the demand for sustainable energy solutions grows, so does the need for innovation in the renewable energy sector. The latest breakthrough? The bladeless wind turbine. Designed by the Spanish ...

With energy demands rising, researchers have completed an algorithm -- or approach -- to design more efficient wind farms, helping to generate more revenue for builders and more renewable energy for ...

Chemical engineers use coated carbon fibers and eliminate steam-based heating in their simpler design, which also can be powered by wind energy. What started as a simple errand to deposit a check at a ...

Wind turbines are producing an ever-greater share of the world’s energy mix, especially of generated electricity. Wind generators continue to get taller and to realize greater production capacity, but ...
