Wind Power in Power Systems

Thomas Ackermann(Editor) As environmental concerns have focussed attention on the generation of electricity from clean and renewable sources, wind energy has become the world’s fastest growing energy source. The authors draw on substantial practical experience to address the technical, economic and safety issues inherent in the exploitation of wind power in a competitive electricity market. [...]

Southwest Windpower Air-X Land 12V Wind Turbine

Microprocessor-Based Technology The AIR is by far the world’s number one selling small wind turbine.In late 2001 we introduced an entirely new level of technology previously found only in state-of-the-art mega-watt-class wind turbines. The Air X incorporates a new microprocessor-based technology that results in increased performance, improved battery charging capability, greater reliability and the reduction [...]

Wind Energy Explained: Theory, Design and Application-Second Edition

Two completely new chapters covering the fundamentals of data collection and analysis, computer codes and wind turbine design and testing, the authors draw on substantial practical experience to provide a highly accessible introduction to the cross-disciplinary field of wind engineering.

Want Free Power? Build A Wind Generator

It is true.  You may have heard it and not believed it, but you can build a wind generator on your own.  Even better is the large amounts of money you can save when you build a wind generator instead of purchasing one from a wholesaler or retailer.  It is easy to build a wind [...]

Windmill design

What constitutes a windmill? A windmill is device that converts wind energy into mechanical energy which is later converted into electrical energy. A windmill typically consists of the following parts: • The blades – A windmill can consist of any number of blades from four to 20. Some special wind mills have higher number of [...]

Wind turbine

What is a wind turbine? A wind turbine is also referred to as a windmill or wind generator. Though the terms are used interchangeably, there is a minor difference. The wind turbine is the device that makes use of the wind energy to produce mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is then used as is or [...]

Wind power solutions at home

With the world’s ever-increasing demand of power being more than its supply, it is about time that we take concrete steps to save power. Apart from being conscious about the usage of power and water at home, one can employ pollution-free and cost-effective power solutions at our homes. Solar power solutions and wind power solutions [...]

Wind generator

What is a wind generator? A wind generator is a machine that uses wind energy to produce electrical energy. It captures wind energy and converts it into mechanical energy that moves the blades of a motor to produce electrical energy. Wind generators help produce thousands of megawatts of electricity. They are also a very popular [...]
