LLNL researchers studying how to reduce uncertainties and errors in wind forecasts and power predictions.

Although wind energy researchers cannot see the airflow around wind turbines, they know that wakes shed from upstream wind turbines lead to reduced...

A new report finds that with high penetrations of wind and solar on the grid, together with good system planning, sound engineering practices, and ...

A new modeling tool developed by DOE’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory estimates that offshore wind development in areas like the Gulf Coast...

A new report recently published by DOE shows a downward trend in levelized cost of energy (LCOE) for both land-based and offshore wind projects since 2010.

The nationwide demand for energy is fueling development of offshore wind resources.

Letter from the Wind Program Director, Third Quarter 2013 edition

DOE's Argonne National Laboratory developed a spatially explicit individual-based model for examining the cumulative impacts of wind energy development on populations and habitats of the greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus)—a candidate for...

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently announced the launch of WINDExchange, a national engagement and outreach initiative that marks a new e...

The amount of wind power in current electricity supply portfolios around the world is rapidly increasing. To help ensure the power system's reliability and adequacy, grid operators are actively pursuing the development of new rules that fully consider ...
