Bio-based resin may find use in recyclable wind turbine blades
Posted by ArielTechGeek 69 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Although wind turbines generate electricity via an eco-friendly process, the giant blades of those turbines typically end up in landfills once they wear out. That could change, however, thanks to a new bio-based resin that would allow old blades to be broken down and recycled into new ones.Continue ReadingCategory: Environment, ScienceTags: Wind turbine, Recyclable, NREL, Materials

Massive 40-MW floating wind turbine array wins major tick of approval
Posted by ArielTechGeek 105 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
While the quest for pulling more megawatts from wind turbines has generally led to bigger and bigger rotors on turbines of conventional design – like this monster 22-MW number in China – Norway’s Wind Catching Systems (WCS) has taken a different path. It claims its mega-array of smaller rotors arranged in a grid would achieve up to 126 MW, or five times the energy of a 15-MW single-rotor turbine,
