Building new wind farms is a powerful way of getting more renewable energy to homes and businesses. But what if you could squeeze more electricity from wind turbines already spinning in the fields? For that, you need more information. “The name of the game with wind turbines is all about efficiency,” says Eric Tucker, senior director of technical products at GE Research. “The more wind they’re capturing, the more energy they can create.”

The Way Forward: How GE Engineers Are Helping Build A Path To A Renewable Future

Will Palmer
April 20, 2021

In the five decades since the first Earth Day, the world has made much progress in understanding the perils posed by climate change and finding the solutions we need. But we are far from done. The switch to electric cars alone will force us to reimagine not only how we make electricity, but also how we distribute it.

Renewables are clearly a big part of the future of energy, but so are natural gas, energy storage, hydropower and the digital grid. Other industries, like aviation, must also decarbonize to help prevent the planet from warming.

Sensors And Sensibility: This Breakthrough Could Lead To Better Ways For Spotting Dangerous Gases

Radislav Potyrailo, a principal scientist at GE Research in Niskayuna, New York, has a saying he picked up from one of his mentors: “A day in the library is worth a year in the lab.” So, while other scientists might spend their free time hiking or fishing, Potyrailo likes to pore over the footnotes of scientific journal articles looking for details about how others have tried and failed — or succeeded — and the nuances of their experiments.
