Energy Management System Combines Solar, Energy Software and Power Storage

  Business Wire/Promo image Since the tsunami last year and the resulting Fukushima nuclear plant disaster in Japan, grid instability has been a major issue while renewable energy installations have grown rapidly. In an effort to tie together both a need for more residential-side energy generation and smooth out grid stability, Kyocera has introduced a [...]

Superconductivity Can Boost Wind Energy – Efficiency

Due to continuous improvement in the associated technology and configuration techniques, will increase the chances of the USA to stay on top as far as wind power is concerned. Furthermore, it is also strongly expected that cost of the power generation will also be reduced significantly. For honouring the recent development of superconducting drive generator [...]

New Wind Turbine 300x’s More Powerful

The electric wind turbines built 30 years ago, after the 1970s oil-price shocks increased interest in the industry, often experienced serious problems. Some came apart in bad storms, some did not work well, even in good weather, and still others found insects piling up on the blades, slowing power production. Bird deaths at some early [...]

Tower Wind Turbine

People have been using wind power from the time immemorial. Originally they learnt to transform kinetic energy of wind stream into mechanical one. There appeared lots of different wind mills making men’s life much easier in those times. An idea of a wind turbine for electric power generation using wind power started up around 100 [...]

Turbine Placement to Optimize Wind Power

Although wind power energy production in 2010 was estimated to be only about 2.5 percent of worldwide electricity usage, wind turbines are considered a mature technology with many experts suggesting that we’re approaching the theoretical limit of individual wind turbine efficiency. For this reason, researchers are now looking at new approaches to wind farm design [...]
