The U-Turn in Wind Energy: How Horizontal Wind Turbines Are Revolutionizing the Industry
Did you know that a recent study found that conventional vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) are only able to capture about 20-30% of the wind’s energy, compared to the whopping 50-60% efficiency rate of their horizontal counterparts? This staggering statistic highlights a major shift in the wind energy landscape, with horizontal wind turbines (HWTs) rapidly gaining…
