The diversity of applications requiring fasteners appear endless. Consider where you are seated or standing in this moment; the electronic devices, furniture, walls, windows, your entire home or work place. This diverse expanse includes but...
Anybody out there have a crystal ball? A tried-and-true way of forecasting the future? In the movies, the crystal ball and fortune-teller always see the future. With all the changes we see on the horizon, especially post-election, we also know there...
As electrification expands around the globe, utilities are experiencing an increasing need to incorporate more green energy solutions into their generation portfolios. Wind assets are a key element of this strategy, not only because they are an...
Wind has been a source of energy for centuries, supplying reliable and continuous power generation. Over the years, humans have used...
At the UN’s COP28 climate change conference last year, an agreement was reached to triple global renewables capacity by 2030. As such, meeting ambitious global wind energy targets has become increasingly urgent — yet the industry faces a...
Offshore wind farms are engineering marvels, harnessing the power of nature to deliver sustainable and renewable energy. Central to these impressive structures is a carefully planned network of inter-array cables that connect turbines to each other...
Operations and maintenance make up as much as 30-50 percent of the total lifecycle cost of a typical wind power plant, according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). Main shaft grounding is a critical component in preventing costly...
Back in 2015, America planted the seeds for a future powered by clean energy when its first commercial offshore wind farm[1] was constructed off...
When the shift to clean and more renewable sources of energy in the United States began earlier this century, the growth of wind farms increased dramatically. It seemed like almost overnight, large wind turbines by the dozens or hundreds suddenly...
