Although wind turbines generate electricity via an eco-friendly process, the giant blades of those turbines typically end up in landfills once they wear out. That could change, however, thanks to a new bio-based resin that would allow old blades to be … Continue reading Fast-dissolving bio resin could drive recycling of wind turbine blades
Battery news typically covers the latest, greatest laboratory or industry breakthroughs to push modern devices further and faster. Could you build your own flow battery stationary storage for home-built solar …read more Continue reading Open Source Residential Energy Storage
The world’s largest single-capacity floating wind platform has set to sea and the builder released images of the operation. Mingyang’s OceanX is set to travel 191 nm (220 miles, 354 km) over the next three days to its final offshore destination.

Following successful trials last year at a UK wind farm, Denmark’s Ørsted has now put heavy lift drones to work at a 94-turbine offshore wind farm in the North Sea – completing resupply missions up to 15 times faster while also reducing costs.Continue … Continue reading Heavy lift drones deliver critical cargo to offshore wind turbines
What is this dystopia coming to when one of the world’s largest tech companies can’t find a way to sufficiently monetize a nearly endless stream of personal data coming from …read more Continue reading Hackaday Links: July 28, 2024
In the Belgian North Sea, maintenance vessels are now able to tether to an automatic cable at a wind farm to get their batteries topped up. The innovative system is the first of its kind and a major step in keeping electric vessels as green as possible… Continue reading World-first wind turbine tech puts an 8-megawatt charger on an oil rig
While the quest for pulling more megawatts from wind turbines has generally led to bigger and bigger rotors on turbines of conventional design – like this monster 22-MW number in China – Norway’s Wind Catching Systems (WCS) has taken a different path. … Continue reading Massive 40-MW floating wind turbine array wins major tick of approval
Good news for planet Earth, at least as far as the data shows for the United States. According to the US Energy Information Administration, in the five years from 2019 to 2024, in March and April specifically, electricity production using wind power ha… Continue reading Wind energy blows away coal-fired power in the US
Mingyang Smart Energy, maker of the world’s largest wind turbines, has just unveiled its latest gigantic floating offshore wind turbine creation. The OceanX is a two-headed, deep-water behemoth capable of generating during Cat 5 hurricanes.Continue Rea… Continue reading Giant twin-rotor floating wind turbine can harness a hurricane
