And because wave energy projects are relatively unobtrusive, they’re far less controversial than offshore wind, which has generated fierce opposition on both U.S. coasts. In September ...

A recent paper has made some waves theorizing a way to generate wind energy with no moving parts. I spoke with the author of ...

The more wind, the bigger the waves, and the bigger the waves, the more energy they have. This is kinetic energy - movement energy that can be used to generate electrical energy. There are ...

The wind spins the blades, which turn a shaft connected to a generator that produces electricity. The biggest wind turbines generate enough electricity in a year (about 12 megawatt-hours ...

With the most recent Santa Ana wind event in Southern California this ... rock sitting at the bottom of the riverbed, it will generate wave-like ripples downstream of the rock.
