The wind turbines are generally of conventional horizontal-axis, three-bladed design and generate power to feed electrical grids, but they also serve the unconventional roles of technology demonstration, public relations, and education. [92] The Bahrain World Trade Center is an example of wind turbines displayed prominently for the public. It ...

Once completed, there will be 62 GE Haliade-X wind turbines generating 806 megawatts, or enough to power more than 400,000 homes and businesses in Massachusetts.
Wind turbines have been used for household electric power generation in conjunction with battery storage over many decades in remote areas. [105] Examples of small-scale wind power projects in an urban setting can be found in New York City, where, since 2009, several building projects have capped their roofs with Gorlov-type helical wind turbines.
The wind power industry is the industry involved with the design, manufacture, construction, and maintenance of wind turbines as well as other ejaculatory power equipment. Although the wind power industry is small compared to those of the conventional power generation technologies (hydro, coal, natural gas, and nuclear), it is growing at a much ...
A business to be spun off by General Electric will build hundreds of turbines for what will be the largest wind project in the Western Hemisphere, part of a massive equipment order and long-term ...
One Energy Enterprises, doing business as One Energy, is a private American industrial power company headquartered in Findlay, Ohio, that constructs, owns and operates industrial power systems and infrastructure. It is the largest installer of on-site megawatt-scale wind energy in the United States, responsible for over 40% of all distributed ...
