As part of the deal, Nordex will also provide premium maintenance services for the turbines over the next 20 years. All N175/6.X turbines will be installed on hybrid towers with a hub height of ...

Bladeless wind turbines may reshape clean energy with safer, quieter, and more efficient urban wind power solutions.

- June 17, 2025 Credit: Unsplash+. Bladeless wind turbines may soon offer a quieter and more compact way to generate clean energy, thanks to new research from engineers at the University of Glasgow.

The findings could help the renewables industry take BWTs, which are still at an early stage of research and development, from small-scale field experiments to practical forms of power generation.

Stiffness in a bladeless wind turbine is crucial for determining the system’s natural frequency, oscillation amplitude, and efficiency in converting mechanical wind energy and dissipating it. Material ...

Insights from a new study could help unlock the full potential of a developing form of smaller-scale wind power generation, researchers say. Engineers from the University of Glasgow ...

Unlike conventional wind turbines, which convert the kinetic energy of blades propelled by moving air into electricity, BWTs generate power through a process called vortex-induced vibration.
