The sky might literally be the limit for wind power — rotors spinning miles high could help supply electricity worldwide.
“There is a huge amount of energy available in high-altitude winds,” said researcher Ken Caldeira at the Carnegie Institution’s Department of Global Ecology in Stanford, Calif. “These winds blow much more strongly and steadily than near-surface [...]

For those naysayers who doubt that Cape Wind can produce the equivalent of 75 percent of the Cape’s electricity, I have to agree that that figure is not exact. Actually, Cape Wind could provide the equivalent of 93 percent of the Cape’s electricity. That figure is not Jim Gordon’s–he is much too modest [...]

The main work of wind turbines is to utilize the energy of wind and convert it into electricity; stronger wind is considered good for electricity production. But the speed of wind should not be too strong because it makes turbines spin too fast and in this process it commits suicide! Why is it so? Because [...]
