Philippines, Negros Occidental – The town of Pulupandan will soon get a taste of clean energy from wind turbines that are set to produce 50 megawatts (MW) of wind power by the end of 2015. This huge project is funded by a Filipino-owned power generation firm.
Philippine Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC), announced the approval of the initial FiT (Feed-in Tarrifs) that applies to all generated energy from renewable energy sources (RES) particularly Hydro, Biomass, Wind, and Solar. ERC however, didn’t fix the FiT or OTEC (Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion) Resources for further research and study.
What turbine works best offshore? Is it the horizontal? or the vertical-axis mechanism? That is the question that is being re-evaluated by Sandia National Laboratories’ wind energy research. Sandia Laboratory is re-examining vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT) who they think can solve the problems that horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT) Read more »
Harnessing the power of high altitude winds has been continually explored over the years. Recently, testing of a 35-foot wide prototype Airborne Wind Turbine (AWT) has been completed by Altaeros Energies. The AWT was deployed at 350 feet high and produced twice as much power at high altitude than generated Read more »
