Energy Management

Residential Wind Power is an excellent means of generating electricity. Currently solar power and wind power are becoming extremely popular all over the world due to the costs of installation being so low and how effective home made energy is.

Residential Wind Power is capable of providing results that will have your full satisfaction and it offers the possibility to easily save up to 75% off your electricity bill.  In some cases you are able to save 100% on your electricity bill, and sell the excess to the power company. It is possible to generate enough required energy needed with

There's been a little bit of interest in laser based anemometry, or LIDAR, wind turbine control systems. It's been the precept of Risoe's Windscanner program below, and several Risoe-DTU papers at EWEC 2009. It even made this month's Economist technology quarterly. As rotors get bigger, I believe this concept will become more and more import - both for energy production optimisation, and for loads reduction on the blades and drive train.

So what is LIDAR? LIDAR is simply the use of a laser in the same way a RADAR is used, by measuring the time

The latest version 10 of Risoe's wind-analysis software WAsP has been released for a few months now, and after working with it for a while I thought I'd post a few thoughts and comments on how it's working.

WAsP is a micro-scale wind modeling software package used to estimate wind speeds over a region based on measured wind speeds at discrete points (typically met masts). WAsP also forms the backbone for other wind packages such as Windfarmer and Windpro. The orographic-flow model used by WAsP is the 'BZ-model' of Troen (1990), which in simple terms places a high-resolution 2D

Scientists believe that natural resources can meet the energy needs of the entire human population. Wind energy too has huge potential to generate power for us. Researchers are trying to trap offshore wind power. But there are still many hiccups that are preventing us from utilizing natural resources for our needs. Wind turbines produce [...]

Well I've had a great time talking with everyone and sharing in their experiences with wind power.
