EcoWatch: A London college has evidence to dispel notions that wind turbines only have decade-long lives. According to new research from Imperial College, most turbines can last up to a quarter of a century. In fact, the United Kingdom`s oldest turbines, built in the early `90s, are still going strong, producing three-quarters of their original output after 19 years of spinning. That`s nearly twice the amount previously claimed, according to Imperial. Turbines on the Arnish Moor wind farm in the United...

Yale Environment 360: USGS Locations of wind turbines in the U.S. More than 47,000 wind turbines dot the U.S. landscape, predominantly clustered in the Midwest and Great Plains, as a new interactive tool developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) shows. The maps -- the first publicly-available, nationwide data set for wind energy generation -- show the locations of every turbine in the U.S., from large wind farms to single turbines, and are accurate to within 10 meters. The maps are part of the USGS's effort to assess...

EcoWatch: As wind energy advocates fight for the renewal of a critical, expired wind energy tax credit and hope for the development of an offshore industry, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has taken note of the onshore wind turbines installed around the country. All 47,000 of them. That`s the USGS` installation estimate for the country as of July 2013. To illustrate it, the federal agency this week released a highly interactive map that allows you zoom in and out of all 50 states to view data on each...
From Planes to Turbines to Automobiles: Composites Put Innovation in Motion
2014-02-12 06:00:00| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Scheduled for April 8–10 at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center, Composites Manufacturing 2014 will focus on the impact of composite materials on manufacturing today and in the future. Three-day event will address what makes composite manufacturing increasingly more vital to numerous industries, as it lowers manufacturing costs, enhances product quality, and saves energy. Specifically, automotive, aerospace, and wind power manufacturers have been relying on composites for years. This story is related to the following:Trade Associations
