The United States is expected to add more than 7 GW of wind installations in 2025, a 36% increase over the previous year, and ...

It can be tough to predict, and even tougher to manage. But wind-farm operators are finding success navigating around Mother Nature in cold climates. After experiencing significant wind-farm downtime ...

Axial cracking in bearing races has become all too common in large megawatt turbines. This damage can shorten bearing life to as little as one to two years. Recent research suggests a root cause of ...

They say all good things come to pass and wind farms are no exception. For Alberta’s Cowley Ridge Wind Farm, Canada’s first and oldest commercial wind facility, the end of its operating life came ...

Back in 2017, GTM Research published a report on the state of the U.S. energy storage market through 2016. The study projects that by 2021 deployments of stored energy — a combination of residential, ...

U.S. adoption of offshore wind technology has been slow compared to European counterparts. Europe’s first offshore wind installation, Denmark’s Vindeby, came online in 1991 with a capacity of 4.9 MW.

Renewable sources of energy, which include wind power, have developed rapidly since the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change was introduced in 1992 to address global warming and ...

It is no longer true that the main advantage of VAWT is that they do not need to orient to the wind. Now their main advantages are that they can capture more wind energy, or capture wind energy more ...

The American wind industry has stayed resilient through a difficult year, with a positive outlook for development in the years ahead. However, in order to continue to grow and thrive throughout this ...

Meeting AEP or annual energy production targets is an ongoing challenge in the wind industry. AEP is the amount of electricity a wind farm generates over one year. While any faulty turbine component ...

The renewable energy sector is being forced to reduce the levelized cost of electricity (LCoE). The wind energy industry is striving to match or exceed the LCoE of traditional energy sources. Due to ...

The U.S. wind market installed 593 MW in Q2 2025, down 60% compared to Q2 2024. But installations through the first nine months of 2025 are projected to outpace 2024, reaching a total of 3.8 GW, ...
