SMALL-SCALE VERTICAL AXIS WIND TURBINE DESIGN
upcommons.upc.edular to the original idea, which is a vertical axis wind turbine with less than 1 kW of rated power. From this database we can extract that from the 558 models of wind turbines listed, the 20% was of vertical axis type (VAWT from now on) and the other part was of horizontal axis type (HAWT).
A REPORT ON WIND ENERGY - Illinois General Assembly
cgfa.ilga.govDec 31, 2007 · • There are two types of modern wind turbines: horizontal-axis and vertical axis. • The average utility size wind turbine being installed today is 1.5 megawatts (MW). • Coal is the leading source for electric generation (49%), followed by natural gas (20%) and nuclear power (19%). Wind energy accounted for just over 1% of total generation ...
