Embracing the power of renewable energy, for a better tomorrow
When we talk about clean energy, solar panels and wind turbines often steal the spotlight. But there’s one renewable energy source that’s been quietly powering communities for over a century — hydroelectric power. Despite being around for so long, it’s still a major player in the global effort to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and…

When you picture a wind turbine, chances are you imagine those towering white giants with three long blades slicing through the sky on sprawling open land. These are horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs), the dominant design in large-scale wind energy. But there’s another contender quietly gaining attention: vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). They might look…
