We all know that we have a bit of an energy problem. Traditional methods of creating power, like fossil fuels, cause vast amounts of air pollution and habitat destruction; however, there are a number ...

With all the concentrated efforts toward achieving cleaner energy, a Spanish startup aims to reinvent wind turbines. Better said, it aims to offer an alternative to traditional wind farms, much like ...

Farms dotted with the gigantic spinning blades of wind turbines have become a standard sight on long-distance road trips, but what if there was another way to capture energy from the wind? A startup ...

This was made possible by Vortex Bladeless, which launched a wind turbine of the same name. Instead of giant rotating blades, it’s shaped like a cylindrical pole that sways in the wind. This swaying ...

An innovative wind turbine concept currently in the prototype phase captures the energy of vorticity, an aerodynamic effect also known as the “vortex shedding effect.” As the wind bypasses a fixed ...

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.

Vortex Bladeless is a radical company. It wants to completely change the way we get energy from the wind. Think wind stick instead of a massive tower with blades that capture blowing winds. Wind stick ...

The turbines we currently use for wind power are incredibly advanced pieces of technology. Everything inside of them –from the shape of their airfoils to the generators they spin– has been ...

Could a bladeless wind turbine answer the issues with clean energy and save a few bird lives in the process? It can if you believe that the same technology we use to get your milkshake to your mouth ...

In this special guest feature, Robert Roe from Scientific Computing World writes that HPC simulation provides a platform to develop advancements in energy generation technologies. Through the use of ...

And quiet enough to not get your friendly neighborhood NIMBYs upset. Most wind turbines aren’t exactly small enough to fit in a backyard–since a bigger size means more energy, a single blade can be ...
