A Spanish company is developing a wind turbine that doesn't require blades to generate energy. Unlike typical wind turbines, which use the breeze to spin blades that in turn power a generator, the ...

The wind energy industry has long been dominated by the turbines and wind farms that undermine the beauty of remote landscapes. Has this Spanish company just cracked wind power? When we think of wind ...

The first power-generation wind turbine was developed by Scottish professor James Blyth in 1887. Through his successful development, Blyth established a key invention that initiated the process of ...

Across the world, wind power is growing fast—but not fast enough. To meet climate goals and reach carbon neutrality, the United Nations says global wind energy must triple in the next ten years.

A tech start-up has developed a bladeless turbine that it says can generate clean energy without the harmful environmental impact of large wind farms. Vortex Bladeless is hoping to reinvent wind power ...

From floating mega-turbines to AI-powered micro wind systems, these breakthroughs redefined what wind energy can achieve.

When you think of a wind turbine, an image of an airplane-propeller hoisted high in the air comes to mind – but that might be about to change. Norway’s state energy company, one of the largest oil and ...

This week’s video comes courtesy of Vortex Bladeless, a Spanish start-up that has proposed a new way of harnessing energy from wind. Wind turbines currently use the rotation of blades to generate ...

Computer simulations are helping engineers at Glasgow University to find the optimum design for bladeless wind turbines (BWTs) that could deliver electricity to national grids. BWTs are still at an ...

South Africa's Verreaux's eagles have a problem. The very landscapes they favour, where the air currents along vast ridges carry them as they soar, are prime locations for wind farm developers - who ...

South eastern Africa is the heart of the Verreaux's eagle range South Africa's Verreaux's eagles have a problem. The very landscapes they favour, where the air currents along vast ridges carry them as ...
