The future of renewable energy might be in the sky. Researchers in China have reportedly tested a new, gravity-defying wind turbine system that they say could generate power from the airspace above ...
A Chinese company reported flying a massive airborne wind energy system to roughly 2,000 meters during a January 2026 test flight that local officials described as the world’s first “urban floating ...
Renewable energy at sea isn't limited to offshore wind turbines. There are also devices that go under the water, harnessing wave and tidal power. Reporter Emma Jacobs visited Scotland's Orkney Islands ...
WindTronics is one of many wind companies trying to crack into the clean energy industry. Can it make wind power affordable and revitalize manufacturing at the same time? Martin LaMonica is a senior ...
The WTTC opened in 2011 and has since evolved to test longer wind turbine blades (Credit: DOE) When WTTC opened in 2011, it tested land-based wind turbine blades that typically spanned around 50 ...
MidAmerican Energy is expanding technology that keeps wind turbine lights off at night — unless aircraft are nearby.The ...
MidAmerican's radar that will turn on wind turbine warning lights when a plane is detected. Residents of four Iowa counties may notice there are no red lights now blinking in the night sky.
Floating wind turbines are crucial to the future of offshore wind, and to bring energy costs down to a competitive level, they require radically different thinking. French company Eolink is starting ...
One of opponents’ main arguments is that when the wind doesn’t blow, turbines don’t produce electricity. But as Stanford ...
