Wind Energy

US offshore wind 2026: only 174 MW operational vs Europe's 30 GW, but Vineyard Wind and 80,000 MW in the pipeline signal real momentum.

Onshore vs offshore wind energy: cost comparison, capacity factors, siting challenges, and when each technology makes sense for the grid.

Learn how wind turbines work: blade aerodynamics, the 59.3% Betz limit, gearbox vs direct-drive, and why taller turbines produce far more power.

Can you put a wind turbine in your backyard? Zoning rules, lot size requirements, and the wind resource math most sites can't meet.
