Description
Summary:In a world in which electricity is increasingly necessary, it is vitally important to ensure that the supply of this electricity is safe, reliable, sustainable, and environmentally friendly, reducing CO2 emissions into the atmosphere and the use of fossil fuels. Renewable energies, and wind energy, in particular, make a significant contribution to this. Wind energy research dates to the last century, yet efforts to improve wind turbine performance continue around the world. Advances in blade aerodynamics and wind resource assessment are outstanding [...]
