CH Shirley Wind announced that the company will be investing approximately $50 million in a 20-megawatt wind farm project in Glenmore, Wisconsin. CH Shirley Wind is a subsidiary of Central Hudson Enterprises Corporation (CHEC) and CHEC is owned by CH Energy Group. About 90% of controlling interest in the wind farm facility will be acquired by CH Shirley Wind. The electrical output from the eight wind turbines will be purchased by Wisconsin Public Service Corporation for a period of 20 years through a power purchasing agreement.
Planetary Systems offers a range of renewable energy systems for commercial and residential applications. The wind power mounting systems are essential for safe mounting of wind systems. They are constructed to stand against variable wind speeds. Wind power generators can generate maximum power when they are mounted on wind towers and at the same time located in a place where the wind flow is not blocked.
OptoAtmospherics offers the Optimizer advanced atmospheric measurement unit for the assessment of sites and wind farm operations. It provides micro-scale measurements based on which the performance of existing wind farms can be enhanced.
SGL Rotec GmbH & Co. KG, a joint venture between SGL Group (51%) and Abeking & Rasmussen Schiffsbau- und Yachtwerft (49%) announced today a long-term agreement with BARD Emden Energy GmbH & Co. KG for the delivery of rotor blades for offshore wind turbines.
Northern Power Systems has selected Analog Devices’ SHARC digital signal processors for use in the company’s Northwind 100 community-scale wind turbines. The Northwind 100 wind turbine utilizes an advanced ‘digital drivetrain’ and the wind turbines are capable of delivering 100 kW of rated power for community-scale wind applications such as municipalities, schools, universities, farms and businesses. By incorporating SHARC digital signal processors, data converters and other ADI components in the Northwind 100’s Permanent Magnet Direct Drive (PMDD) design, the need for a gearbox is eliminated.
Peter Bass, a Dutch researcher, was the first to map the development of strong winds on sunny days that rises to a height of almost 200 meters. Through this research Peter Baas introduced a number of improvements in the climate and weather models. This research will help the aviation sector and wind energy generators.
Solar Lighting International offers the X-Series wind outdoor lighting system that incorporates a small wind turbine. The rotor diameter of the wind turbine is 46 inches. The wind powered light needs a wind speed of 12 miles per hour for operation. At a wind speed of 28 miles per hour, the wind turbine provides a rated power of 400 watts. For one month, the wind turbine offers 38 kilowatt hours at a wind speed of 12 miles per hour.
Wind Turbine Industries supplies wind turbine inverters. The UL 508 inverter is a synchronous model with overall dimensions of 37 X 28 X 14 inches. This wind turbine inverter weighs 135 pounds, while the choke has a total weight of 175 pounds. The choke measures 22 X 19 X 14 inches in size. The UL 508 wind turbine inverter has a peak power rating that ranges from 10 kilowatts to 20 kilowatts with input operating voltage between 0 volt AC and 180 volt AC. The output voltage specifications of the inverter from Wind Turbine Industries range from 208 volts AC to 250 volts AC.
A long-term power purchase agreement has been signed by Iberdrola Renewables with M-S-R Public Power Agency. Iberdrola Renewables is about to begin construction of its 50-megawatt Big Horn 2 Wind Project near Bickleton, Washington. Through this agreement, the entire output from the project will be purchased by M-S-R Public Power Agency for a period of 25 years.
Commercial operation in the Whispering Willow Wind Farm-East in Franklin County has been initiated by Interstate Power and Light (IPL), a subsidiary unit of Alliant Energy Corporation. This wind farm in Iowa is the first to be owned and operated by Interstate Power and Light. The wind farm is capable of generating emission-free wind energy of up to 200 megawatts, which is enough to power almost 50,000 homes.
