Blizzards May Make Wind Turbines More Efficient

A new study using snow during a Minnesota blizzard gave researchers new insight into the airflow around large wind turbines. Thanks to subsidies, wind turbines are not going away until at least February of 2017, so improving wind energy efficiency is essential, especially in wind farms where airflows from many large wind turbines interact with each other, a problem that no one included in estimates of cost versus value. read more
