VAWTs of 200W to 2kW are good for remote homes or cabins to satisfy their energy needs. Savonius-type vertical-axis wind turbines are low-maintenance and can operate even in low wind speeds.

But a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) is aligned with blades that rotate perpendicular to the ground (or ocean) and look more like tree branches. Both types of turbines have been around for a while.

World Wide Wind, a Norway-based company, is now developing a new type of floating Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT), as reported by Interesting Engineering. Engineers believe that the VAWT can ...
