Harnessing the wind requires the installation of wind farms, either on land or offshore, with dozens of wind turbines. Find out how this energy is generated and how it is harnessed. Read more about wind energy How wind farms work What is a wind turbine and how does it work Global Wind ...
As wind passes through a turbine, it creates a wake that decreases the downstream average wind velocity. The faster the spin of the turbine blades relative to the wind speed, the greater the impact on the downstream wake profile. Forwind farms, it is important to control upstream turbines in...
“Algonquin is a global leader in renewable energy, and IEA is honored to support them on their latest wind construction project in Illinois,” said Chris Hanson, IEA’s executive VP of renewable energy. “We look forward to supporting the full EPC needs of this project, in addition to inst...
"I think with the interest that's been sparked in Illinois, you all are probably the next up to bat," he said. Jobs, money at stake To make a wind turbine you need to bend steel, turn screws and grind gears. "It's the stuff that the industrial Midwest has historically done," said...

At the regional level, there is no systematic shift in vegetation greenness between the pre- and post-turbine periods. At interannual and seasonal time scales, there are no confident vegetation changes over WFPs relative to NWFPs. These results remain robust when the pre- and post-turbine ...
