On the upland moors above Llangurig, dusk arrives with two quiet signals: pipistrelles skimming low over the rushes, and the last light catching the spire of…
Deliberately throttling a wind turbine sounds like leaving revenue on the table. Run it slower, generate less electricity, earn less money — the logic seems airtight.…
On a dark night over the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, thousands of migrating birds move silently through the air — invisible to the naked eye, but not…
An innovative technology will soon protect native wildlife from colliding with 255 wind turbines. Across the United States, rising electricity consumption requires high-capacity clean power generation…

East of the Cascades, the high desert around Arlington, Oregon is the kind of place where wind rarely stops and summer sun hammers the plateau for…
Wind farm operators already accept a counterintuitive tradeoff: when turbines stand in each other’s wind shadow, the turbulence they create accelerates wear on their neighbors. The…
On a green ridge above the South China Sea, a single white turbine spent twenty years turning over a coal and gas fired power station. It…
It has been a long time since electricity was produced using wind turbines in the Klickitat County high desert of Washington, utilizing the steady winds of…
On a limestone ridge above the Adriatic, sixteen steel towers now turn where sheep used to be the only thing moving. The hills behind Split and…
Wind energy developers have to be careful about the projects that they pursue and the manner in which they pursue them, considering that there are many…
A loud boom rolled across a flat stretch of farmland southeast of Lancaster, Missouri, just after 1:30 in the afternoon. Neighbors a quarter mile off looked…
For decades, every wind turbine built to international safety standards has been engineered to survive the same fearsome scenario: a sudden 15 meters-per-second surge in wind…
At ground level in Brandenburg, the wind barely stirs the grass over what used to be an open pit coal mine. Two hundred and fifty feet…
For years, the working assumption in wind energy has been simple: sites that get more rain wear out turbine blades faster. More rain, more damage. It…
In the spring of 2024, engineers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory did something deliberately counterintuitive: they took a commercial 1.5 MW wind turbine, pitched all…
The wind does not stop blowing on the eastern side of Norton Sound, 125 miles away from Nome in Shaktoolik. There have been two turbines rotating…
A major wind repowering project is taking shape in Oregon to meet rising electricity demand. Tech infrastructure is rapidly growing across the United States, including AI…
Wind farm engineers have spent years learning to deliberately point turbines away from the wind — a technique called wake steering — to coax more total…
The U.S. Virgin Islands is seeking clean energy solutions by pairing wind, solar, and battery storage systems. The territory primarily still relies on fossil fuels for…
Hundreds of meters above the ground, a large kite slices through the wind, its tether pulling taut to drive a generator below. It looks controlled —…
Gilliam County’s high desert stretches wide and windswept across northeastern Oregon, where cattle have grazed working farmland for generations. Now, the same open terrain that shaped…
Companies that are able to deliver energy projects centered on a variety of energy sources increase their chances of being appointed to spearhead notable projects and,…
GE Vernova dropped a white paper in Madrid on October 14, 2026, laying out four distinct pathways for Spain to reach a net zero electricity system…
Fifty miles out in the South China Sea, a single turbine blade completes one slow rotation. That rotation alone generates enough electricity to power an average…
Many companies aspire to pursue initiatives in the United States because of the amount of wealth and resources that the nation has compared to most. However,…
Floating offshore wind grew fast — from a single full-scale prototype in 2009 to 88 MW of installed capacity by 2023. Then it stalled. Rising costs…
The Columbia River plateau desert of Eastern Washington lying above the Columbia River basin is an expansive area that is mostly windy, where rangeland stretches to…
Eighty miles off the English coast, there is no land in any direction, only gray water and steel. In February, a jackup vessel lowered the last…
Floating wind turbines don’t just spin — they sway, surge, and rock with the ocean beneath them. Engineers have long treated that motion as an aerodynamic…
A sovereign nation in Oklahoma has invested in innovative near-ground wind turbine technology. Rising energy demands are pressuring regional power grids across the United States. This creates…
Halfway up a ski trail in the Berkshires, a single white tower rises above the lift line. Its blades turn against a sky most skiers never…
