Wind Powered Brewery
Rob Holliday takes us to Kill Devil Hills to the Outer Banks Brewing Station. It is the first facility of its kind in the nation to produce a frothy brew by using “breeze” power. INTRO: People on the Outer Banks use the ocean winds for all kinds of uses – para-sailing, hang-gliding and kite-flying come […]

Wind-Powered Beast on Campus
This 7′ tall and 10′ wide creature, aka Strandbeest, resembling a dinosaur skeleton, constructed of flexible plastic tubes and powered by the wind, was seen strolling leisurely across the IUPUI campus on Thursday, April 12, 2007. It’s the work of Theo Jansen, a scientist-turned-artist and kinetic (motion) sculptor; he hails from Holland. It was quite […]

Do Wind Turbines Cause Droughts and Floods?
Energy is neither created or destroyed. We take trillions of Watts out of the air currents every day to generate electricity. What is the environmental impact of reducing the amount of energy in the air streams? Since this energy moves water around the planet, does removing this energy for electrical generation also remove the ability […]
Why do wind tubines generate electromagnetic frequencies…like cell towers?
And cause the same health problems that cell towers do? Why do many “clean energy” “wind” turbines emit lots of dirty, harmful EMF energy and generate to much heat that they often spontaneously catch on fire like cell towers do? Is there something they’re not telling us? Are wind turbines used for something else? They’re […]
How would i go about building a small wind turbine?
Ok, so i need to build a home-made wind turbine that will generate a large voltage over a period of time for a school project. Does anyone have any suggestions on how i should do this?
is the electricity generated from wind turbines dependent on wind speed and swept area alone?
or is it that the faster the rpm, the more the production. (of course this in itself is dependent on the above two criteria) what i need to know is whether a alternator produces same energy at 100 rpm and 300 rpm. also what are the factors that decide how much energy a alternator produces.
How to make a wind turbine?
I have a blade from a broken fan ( the motor broke so the blade is fine ) and wanted to know if anyone had plans on how to make a power generating wind turbine. I know not a powerful one but one to experiment with.

at what level of the oil price do alternative sources of energy (ie solar, wind etc) become viable?
what is the cost of energy production per therm for the different methods of production? ie oil, biofuels, solar, wind etc. i understand that oil is the cheapest way of energy production at the moment, but at what level of the oil price would other methods become economically viable?

Recycling In Scoraig – Scotland’s Wind-Powered Community
Hugh Piggott is a pioneering creator of recycled wind turbines. He has managed to power and maintain an entire community on Scotland’s north-west coast where he runs courses teaching wind turbine construction to students from all over the world. Original: www.guardian.co.uk
Why can’t wind energy be used for generating power for home use?
Came across this interesting article on Tiny Plastic Wind Turbines that can be placed on rooftops and balconies in crowded cities. Cost very little. These turbines generate electricity which gets stored in cells and can be used to power appliances. Are such products being installed some place? What are the costs involved? Installation, maintenance? Chk […]
