Rugby, North Dakota Wind Power Project
Located in Pierce County, North Dakota, the Rugby Wind Power Project’s 71 wind turbines generate 149 megawatts (MW) of clean, renewable energy. Missouri River Energy Services (MRES), based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, purchases 40 MW of output from the Rugby project, enough electricity to power almost 11000 MRES homes in 60 member communities in the states of Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota. The Rugby Wind Power Project supports the local economy by contributing substantial revenue to the community through payments to Pierce County and to landowners, and by the economic boost provided during construction. At the peak of Rugby’s construction, the project employed more than 250 construction workers.

SIAG: Wind Turbine Constructors Go Offshore | Made in Germany
The SIAG company builds about 175 million Euros worth of towers for offshore wind power plants a year. When demand for offshore plants exploded, the company didn’t want to leave the promising field to its competitors. So the steel construction company looked for a suitable site. The failing shipyard Nordseewerke in Emden seemed just right, so SIAG purchased the docks from the previous owner, ThyssenKrupp. Now it plans to build towers here to be installed later at sea. The company has already received its first commission from the wind turbine manufacturer Areva Wind in Bremerhaven.

Severe weather wreaks havoc on power. Here’s one reason why.
Intelligent Wind Turbine Control Using Remote Laser Wind Sensors
A Smart Wind Turbine Sees the Wind Coming… Catch the Wind’s pulsed laser wind sensors give you the capability to see wind speed and direction at a distance. When mounted on top of a utility scale wind turbine, the Vindicator® laser wind sensor (LWS) pulses three eye-safe lasers through the blades and measures the wind at multiple distances out to 300 meters (984 ft.) With feed-forward wind data, each turbine can follow the wind as it continuously shifts. By staying in alignment with the wind, wind turbines will generate more power and will require less maintenance and down-time. The Vindicator® LWS is an exciting, game-changing product that has great potential to revolutionize how the wind energy industry operates, improving the efficiency and reliability of wind turbines. Catch the Wind is located in Manassas, VA outside of Washington, DC and is focused on making wind energy a more profitable and competitive global energy resource.

Jarrod and Ali Boyle, who own and operate Alexandria Nicole, recently installed 20 Windspire wind turbines to generate electricity. According to a Windspire official, ANC is the first Northwest winery to use the 30-foot-tall machines.
Dubai and Moscow’s Moving Skyscrapers
NOTE: I did not make this video. It is the video produced by the architectural firm behind this building. — David Fisher’s company ‘Dynamic Architecture’ have developed a moving skyscraper! The building will be made up of 80 floors, with an apartment on each floor. The rotating building is made possible by 79 giant power-generating wind turbines. As well as the rotation, the wind turbines will also provide enough energy to power the entire building and feed extra energy back into the grid. There are two buildings planned at the moment. One in Dubai and one in Moscow. The Dubai building is planned to be up and running by 2010. www.dynamicarchitecture.net http
