For wind turbines installed in the U.S., 60%-75% of towers and 30%-50% of blades and hubs are manufactured domestically. More than 85% of nacelle assemblies – which house the drivetrain ...

The study addresses one of the most significant technical challenges in offshore wind power. We need to improve the efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness of the turbines’ drivetrain.

EDF Renewables 140 MW Pacific Wind Project in Kern County ... Today, the industry is moving beyond drivetrain monitoring to include sensors on other turbine components. As technology evolves ...

Further expansion is underway in Australia, where a new service location is due to open mid-year, supporting the APAC ...

“The main difference with this new, two-blade design is the turbine essentially becomes a two-dimensional structure that can ...

Its drivetrain features a dual tapered roller bearing integrated main shaft support system, "ensuring high load-bearing capacity and stability." Wind energy nerds will have noticed that this 15-MW ...

Wind turbines with ever larger capacities are ... given the humungous size of its blades. The drivetrain has a dual tapered ...

A new style of twin-blade, flat-packing wind turbine has been unveiled at this year's Floating Wind Days trade show in Norway ...

The type of wind turbine you’re used to seeing in stock photos of wind farms is called a horizontal axis wind turbine (or, HAWT). But there is another form of wind power, called a vertical axis ...

Wind turbines keep getting bigger: Each blade can be longer than a football field, and one offshore turbine recently installed in China is as tall as a 50-story building. Making the base to hold ...

With a turbine that large, one would hope it'll hold up against extreme weather. Mingyang said it's built this one to withstand level-17 typhoons at wind speeds of up to 79.8 m/s (178.5 mph). Size ...
