  2. Small wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_wind_turbine

    Turbine blades for small-scale wind turbines are typically 1.5 to 3.5 metres (4 ft 11 in – 11 ft 6 in) in diameter and produce 0.5-10 kW at their optimal wind speed. [1] Most small wind turbines are horizontal-axis wind turbines, [2] but vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) may have benefits in maintenance and placement, although they are less ...

    Counter-rotating wind turbines Light pole wind turbine. Unconventional wind turbines are those that differ significantly from the most common types in use.. As of 2012, the most common type of wind turbine is the three-bladed upwind horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT), where the turbine rotor is at the front of the nacelle and facing the wind upstream of its supporting turbine tower.

  7. Wind power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_power

    Wind power is the use of wind energy to generate useful work. Historically, wind power was used by sails, windmills and windpumps, but today it is mostly used to generate electricity. This article deals only with wind power for electricity generation. Today, wind power is generated almost completely with wind turbines, generally grouped into ...
