Each year a panel reviews papers nominated from the past two years and selects an article of high significance. The paper, published in 2022, describes the first experimental implementation of Model ...

Wind power generation in the U.S. is enjoying favorable winds. First, the cost of wind turbine installations has dropped by over one-third since 2010 as the capacity of turbines increased. Next, ...

With over 350,000 wind turbines currently in use globally, wind continues to be one of the fastest growing forms of renewable energy. In 2021, 93.6 GW of new installations brought global cumulative ...

Maintenance on a wind turbine hub can be exciting, but also somewhat dangerous and a bit exhausting, as all the equipment and tools must be carried up (and down) hundreds of feet. Making pitch ...

ACCORDING TO THE American Wind Energy Association, by the end of 2001, an additional 2000 MW of wind power will be added in the U.S. This new capacity includes four new wind farms of 200 MW or more ...

Converters of permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG), driven by wind turbines, are controlled by a classical proportional–integral controller. However, many research studies highlighted the ...

In order for wind turbines to function effectively across wide ranges of wind conditions, you’ll need what’s known as blade pitch control. Lucy Pao, the Palmer Endowed Chair Professor in the ...
