Wind turbine payback: Environmental lifecycle assessment of 2-megawatt wind turbines
2014-06-16 18:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: US researchers have carried out an environmental lifecycle assessment of 2-megawatt wind turbines mooted for a large wind farm in the US Pacific Northwest. Writing in the International Journal of Sustainable Manufacturing, they conclude that in terms of cumulative energy payback, or the time to produce the amount of energy required of production and installation, a wind turbine with a working life of 20 years will offer a net benefit within five to eight months of being brought online.

Coated Bearings promote wind turbine reliability, performance.
2014-06-16 14:31:16| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Used in new installations or as replacement upgrades, SKF black oxide bearings add surface layer of protection to promote wind turbine reliability and performance. Coating can be specified for all types of critical bearings in wind turbine systems to withstand varying temperatures, speeds, and loads as well as resist contaminants, moisture, and chemicals. Up to 15 different immersion steps create thin surface layer delivering performance upgrade for bearing types and sizes in wind turbines.

DC Generation System optimizes turbine system efficiency.
2014-05-30 14:31:06| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Leveraging Distributed Converter and PCB technology, DC Generation System™ distributes power conversion process across generator, and converts power from AC to DC directly at generator. System can be used with all BWP's geared and direct drive generator designs and results in turbine system efficiency increases of up to 2% through use of SiC MOSFET active rectifiers in Distributed Converter and DC transmission in down tower cables.
