2. Electric boat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_boat

   Large enough wind generators could produce a completely wind-powered electric boat. No such boats are yet known although a few mechanical wind turbine powered boats exist. In hybrid electric boats, if a boat has an internal combustion engine anyway, then its alternator will provide significant charge when it is running.

3. Permanent magnet synchronous generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet...

   A permanent magnet synchronous generator is a generator where the excitation field is provided by a permanent magnet instead of a coil. The term synchronous refers here to the fact that the rotor and magnetic field rotate with the same speed, because the magnetic field is generated through a shaft-mounted permanent magnet mechanism, and current is induced into the stationary armature.

4. Doubly fed electric machine - Wikipedia

   This is useful for large variable speed wind turbines, because wind speed can change suddenly. When a gust of wind hits a wind turbine, the blades try to speed up, but a synchronous generator is locked to the speed of the power grid and cannot speed up. So large forces are developed in the hub, gearbox, and generator as the power grid pushes back.

5. List of most powerful wind turbines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most_powerful_wind...

   All the most powerful turbines are offshore wind turbines. This list also includes the most powerful onshore wind turbines, although they are relatively small compared to the largest offshore ones. As of June 2024, the most powerful wind turbine in operation is the world's first 18MW semi-direct drive offshore wind turbine, developed by ...

6. Windmill ship - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windmill_ship

   A windmill ship, wind energy conversion system ship or wind energy harvester ship propels itself by use of a wind turbine to drive a propeller. They use wind power [1] through a mechanical or electrical transmission to the propeller. Where transmission is electric, storage batteries may also be used to allow power generated at one time to be ...

   Missouri regulators reversed course Wednesday and gave the go-ahead to one of the nation's largest renewable energy projects — a high-voltage power line delivering wind energy from the Midwest ...
