There is still a long way to go to catch up with gas, the UK’s top source of electricity
Marine and engineering consultancy LOC Renewables has invested in geological and geotechnical services to underpin technical consulting for offshore wind farm construction.
It is called Vortex and features reduced operating costs and low environmental impact
‘Mine Kafon’ is made from just bamboo and biodegradable plastic and moves with the wind
Amazon Web Services has announced that it will contract the construction of a 208-megawatt wind farm in North Carolina. Beginning in December of 2016 the new Amazon Wind Farm US East is supposed to start generating 670,000-megawatt hours of wind energy a year. Enough energy to power 61,000 U.S. homes for a year. According to Amazon Web Services this will supply all of its current data centers in the “US East” region as well as all of the data centers it will eventually build there.
The method that is currently being used to store wind energy is pumped storage: the surplus of wind power is used to pump water from a hydrant tank (lower tank) to a water reservoir tank (top tank) and it is stored as water at a high level.
With a capacity of 1.2 GW, Hornsea Project One will be the world's first offshore wind farm to exceed the 1 GW mark!
The Scottish government has approved its installation
Wind power industry has experienced impressive growth during the past year resulting in a total 19% increased capacity.
The government of the United Kingdom announced that wind farms can power all its residences by 2030.
