Researchers at DOE's Argonne National Laboratory are developing a computational simulation tool to conduct studies of complex flow and wind turbine interactions in large land-based and offshore wind farms that will improve wind plant design and reduce ...
Building on its role as a world-class research facility, DOE's National Wind Technology Center at NREL—along with CREE, DNV KEMA, GE Wind, Romax Technology, Vattenfall Windpower, and DOE's Oak Ridge National Laboratory—developed an innovati...
When the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) needed a process to delineate the bureau's proposed offshore Wi...
To help developers more readily estimate the economic benefits of offshore wind plants, DOE recently released a new version of the Jobs and Economi...
Excerpt from the Third Quarter 2013 edition of the Wind Program R&D Newsletter.
Environmental consulting and engineering firm Stantec is observing patterns in offshore bat activity and species composition.
For the United States to ensure that the substantial rollout of offshore wind energy projects envisioned by the DOE is carried out in an efficient and cost-effective manner, it is important to observe the current and emerging practices in the internati...
The installation of offshore wind farms requires a highly specialized fleet of vessels--but no such fleet currently exists in the United States. As part of a broader DOE initiative to accelerate the growth of the U.S. offshore wind industry, energy res...
As offshore wind energy develops in the United States, port facilities will become strategic hubs in the offshore wind supply chain, because all plant and transport logistics must transit through these facilities. Therefore, it is important that federa...
Boulder, Colorado -- As wind turbine capacity continues to grow, so does the need to test the electrical and mechanical power-producing components ...
