When most of today’s wind projects were developed, first costs were the focus; operations and maintenance (O&M) costs were largely unknown. Now, with hundreds of turbine models in operation—sometimes ...

A study by energy industry experts showed that an average wind turbine generator lasts around 25 to 75 years. A spokesperson for the wind farm mentioned in the post said its wind turbine generators ...

Wind turbines that swap traditional mechanical drivetrains for hydraulics could potentially be lighter, more reliable, and less expensive than those fielded today. • A nacelle-mounted hydraulic ...

The quest for energy efficient electric motors has generated a lot of interesting ideas. One of the latest is said to push the efficiency of induction motors to better than super-premium levels by ...
