International wind turbines

What is the International Energy Agency wind technology collaboration programme?

Founded in 1977, the International Energy Agency Wind Technology Collaboration Programme is an international co-operation that shares information and research to advance wind energy research, development and deployment in member countries. The consortium operates under the auspices of the International Energy Agency (IEA).

How has internationalization impacted the wind energy industry?

This section documents how the successful growth and internationalization of the wind energy industry has led to both geographic and market concentration among a small number of large multinational companies, and the challenges faced by wind turbine manufacturers in significantly scaling up the rate of installations.

What is wind technology innovation?

Wind power technology development continues to focus on increasing productivity and lowering costs Wind technology innovation is focused on increasing the productivity of turbines, especially in areas with low wind conditions, by developing turbines with longer blades and higher towers.

Who are the leading suppliers of wind turbine technology?

In the context of wind turbine technologies, Denmark’s Vestas and China’s Mingyang and Goldwind were the top suppliers in high-speed geared drive, medium-speed geared drive and direct drive turbine technologies, respectively.

How much power can a wind turbine produce?

Today’s new wind power projects have a turbine capacity in the 3-4 MW range onshore and 8-12 MW offshore. The amount of power that can be harvested from wind depends on the size of the turbine and the length of its blades. The output is proportional to the dimensions of the rotor and to the cube of the wind speed.
