Puerto Rico is looking to turn the wind into a powerful renewable energy asset. The Puerto Rico Energy Public Policy Act (Act 17), passed in 2019, set a goal for the territory to transition away from ...
Researchers see a realistic path forward to the manufacture of bio-derivable wind blades that can be chemically recycled and the components reused, ending the practice of old blades winding up in ...
The American Wind Energy Association reports that more than 11,600 MW of wind capacity was operating in the United States in 2006 and it expects that number to increase substantially by the end of ...
Although robots have been used by the wind energy industry to paint and polish blades, automation has not been widely adopted. Research at the laboratory demonstrates the ability of a robot to trim, ...
A study from the U.S. Department of Energy and conducted by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) says that wind and solar power generation could become cost-competitive without federal ...
In 2025, solar, wind, and storage added over 55 GW of new capacity, and projections for 2026 are even more dramatic, ...
Wind power production will continue to advance, despite the Trump administration's attempts to halt the growing momentum of ...
The world is in the midst of a shift away from fossil fuels and towards carbon-neutral energy sources, a change expected to be as momentous as the coal that enabled the Industrial Revolution in the ...
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Golden, Colorado, say a realistic path exists in which bio-derivable wind turbine blades can be chemically ...
The findings are published in the new issue of the journal Science. The new resin, which is made of materials produced using bio-derivable resources, performs on a par with the current industry ...
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) see a realistic path forward to the manufacture of bio-derivable wind blades that can be chemically recycled ...
