Wind turbines have grown in size throughout the last decade from several hundreds of kW to several MW’s, the large majority being of the classic three-bladed upwind configuration. However for off-shore installations and off-grid systems reliability, robustness and ease of installation are important design drivers that lead to different technological concepts. Under these circumstances a lightweig ...

"We propose a new approach for urban wind power to help the EU to meet renewable energy targets and make micro–generation acceptable in environmentally sensitive areas. Typically, the wind around buildings is too turbulent and slow to be of much use. Normal turbines need to be placed high above them which is expensive and attracts planning objections. If buildings could be used to augment turb ...
