A study by energy industry experts showed that an average wind turbine generator lasts around 25 to 75 years. A spokesperson for the wind farm mentioned in the post said its wind turbine generators ...
A preliminary analysis of the Vineyard Wind turbine that failed has found that, although the fundamental design of the machine’s 351-foot blades is sound, a manufacturing flaw caused one of them to ...
The massive offshore wind turbine blade that broke and spread fiberglass and foam debris across Nantucket beaches this week was one of several recent failures of blades made by GE Vernova – a top US ...
Debris from a broken offshore wind turbine has for days been washing up on the Nantucket shore, prompting beach closures and frustrating locals at the peak of the summer season. The massive turbine ...
Wind turbines are designed to operate reliably over their typically 20-year design life. That means a typical wind turbine may run for more than 130,000 hours over its lifespan. In addition to ...
As investigations continue into last month's collapse of a football field-sized blade on one of Vineyard Wind's turbines, another blade installed on a turbine off the northeast coast of England has ...
Continuous monitoring of wind turbine health using automated failure detection algorithms can improve turbine reliability and reduce maintenance costs by detecting failures before they reach a ...
Best-case scenario: one-fifth of world's electricity will be generated by wind by 2030, with China making most of world's wind turbines. In a software-driven world, it's easy to forget about the nuts ...
Experimental wind turbines installed at taxpayer expense on the Michael V. DiSalle Government Center in Toledo failed less than two years after installation and are now sitting unused. Renewable ...
