An analysis of the 2023 data on energy resource consumption across countries worldwide has been conducted, identifying the ratios between the consumption of renewable and non-renewable energy sources. The visualization of each energy source's share in overall consumption provides a clear picture of the current reliance on alternative energy sources for each country, enabling comparisons of their progress towards a sustainable future. ↗️

Wind turbines can be damaged by extremely strong wind gusts. For instance, large three-blade wind turbines stop rotating and adjust their blades during high wind speeds. The main danger is the high centrifugal force, which can destroy the blades if the turbine rotates too fast.
For our vertical axis turbines, a special casing has been designed that automatically reduces the wind flow to the rotor. The higher the wind speed, the smaller the flow reaching the rotor. Experimental determination will be needed to find the optimal degree of wind flow reduction for different wind speeds. Since the optimization process can be complex, a simpler approach would be to block more of the wind flow, even if not optimal, to ensure the rotor is protected from possible damage.

Ease of assembly and maintenance is crucial for any wind turbine.
A modification to our turbine design has been developed to greatly simplify assembly and servicing processes. Blade replacement can be performed without affecting other parts of the structure.

The efficiency of any wind turbine increases if the wind flow reaching the blades is amplified using special flow concentrators. A simple solution has been found to concentrate the wind flow for our SVAWT design without increasing the rotor diameter. As a result, the width of the adaptive blades can be reduced, their number increased, and the rotor shaft pulsations, common to all types of VAWTs, significantly minimized.
A solution was also found for HAWTs, allowing more concentrated wind flow to reach the turbine blades through a simple reconstruction.
