Machine learning unlocks the potential of vertical-axis wind turbines

Researchers at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne have achieved a significant breakthrough with the development of vertical-axis H-type wind turbines, which promise to revolutionize the field of renewable energies. These wind turbines, whose blades rotate around a central rod like a carousel, offer advantages in terms of space, noise, and safety for birds over traditional horizontal-axis wind turbines.
