The radar measures the scatter in microwaves bouncing off the sea into orbit; the wave motion measured indicates wind speed. The image shows wind-power density in December, January and February; during June, July and August the density becomes greatest in the high latitudes of the Southern ...
It is theorized that the current global installed capacity of wind power generation may increase from the current generation of 540 (2017) to 5800 GW by 2050. Wind energy potential, in terms of vertical wind speed profile, mean wind-speed distribution, turbulence effects and gust, are discussed...
In response, many countries have developed ambitious plans to expand wind power. However, wind turbines heavily rely on rare-earth elements (REs), and it remains unclear whether supply can meet demand. We investigated potential conflicts between RE demand and supply across ten global regions up ...
Goldwind has collaborated with Sacyr Industrial in construction of a wind farm in Chile, and with Elecnor for the development of wind projects in Mexico. There’s great potential in developing floating offshore wind foundations and recycling and reutilization technologies of parts and components between...
The installed costs of offshore wind energy amounted to 3,461 U.S. dollars per kilowatt in 2022. In comparison, the installed costs of onshore wind power plants were roughly one third of that amount. Despite the higher costs, offshore wind has a great potential for harvesting non-polluting...
In August 2024, Norway's energy giant Equinor has cancelled plans to invest in Vietnam's offshore wind sector, setting a major setback for the country's green power ambitions. Growing delays in regulatory reforms across the country have pushed some potential investors to reconsider their plans ...
