Rutgers University researchers want to develop floating offshore wind turbines like Hywind, the world’s first floating wind energy farm where structures ride big waves 18 miles off Scotland’s coast.
My years of hands-on testing show that while solar energy is straightforward, portable wind turbines require constant management to stay efficient.
In January 2024, Professors Willy Shih and Mike Toffel led 45 HBS MBA students on site visits to witness the energy transition and innovative sustainable production activities throughout Denmark and ...
The University of Iowa has assembled a $78 million proposal to become the site of the world's first test bed for large-scale wind turbines. The Iowa Power Fund Board will consider a request from the ...
Despite large and recurring losses from extreme wind events, no coordinated national program has been established for wind-hazard reduction. For many years, a small community of engineers and ...
Japan aims to start planning a national floating wind test centre next year, a senior industry official said, vowing to pursue a path of wind power growth despite a recent setback when Mitsubishi quit ...
The European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) has called on the UK to back a dedicated test centre to help prove floating wind technologies at a Scottish location it says offers a wider and more relevant ...
