As the demand for wind power has been growing consistently over the years, efforts have been made to accelerate technological developments to keep pace with this growth. Wind turbine power capacities have increased by a factor of 120, from 25 kW to 3,000 kW and beyond, in the past 20 years, with their blades, rotor and hub heights increasing in size accordingly. Most commercially available and widely used turbines across the world today are taller than 100 metres, with their rotors having diameters of more than 120 metres. Thus, the drivetrain, the powerhouse of a wind turbine, has also evolved to suit the increase in size and rated power capacity of wind turbines. Drivetrain design has been constantly upgraded for greater efficiencies in cost as well as performance. Since the drivetrain is one of the most complex components of a wind turbine with a large number of moving parts, it is quite prone to breakdowns and faults. Thus, much of the advancements in drivetrains are focused on having fewer moving parts and weight reduction to have more compact, lighter and simpler systems.

Yesterday, Green Eatz attended a lecture on the vision for a Zero Carbon Britain by 2030: Dream or Reality?, organised by the British Council and presented by Peter Harper from the Centre for Alternative Technology in Wales.
A think-tank of academics and experts in Green Technology envisioned a Britain with a zero carbon footprint and then came up with a strategy on how it could be achieved. They have produced a 384-page report that can be downloaded for free at Zero Carbon Britain, but here it is summarized in just 1 blog post! To learn more, please click the link below!

A few weeks before international travel was limited, we went to the Gola rainforest in Sierra Leone to meet the folks at one of Bulb's carbon offsetting projects, delivered in partnership with ClimateCare. This project keeps CO2 locked up in Gola's trees, while helping to protect the region's rich biodiversity and support local communities. Naturally our flights were 100% carbon neutral, and we'll be sharing more about our trip very soon. To learn more, please click the link below!
