Recently, British researchers at the University of Edinburgh Institute of Foreign released the two C-GEN generators of the prototype. The latest research will greatly enhance the efficiency of wind turbines. The technology can enable a lightweight, direct drive wind turbines installed in place of the original complex transmissions. In addition, the device technology is simple, wear-resistant, easy maintenance. According to engineer, the new C-GEN technology allows direct drive 50% lighter than the original, this way will significantly reduce production and operating costs.

Edinburgh College of Engineering participate in C-GEN R & D, Dr. Miller spoke: “The technology to improve the existing system, make it easier to wind generator manufacture and to reduce the system weight and cost.” Some experts believe that this technology will to make wind energy more affordable, efficient, and power enterprises to improve efficiency in the use of small wind turbines, the technology eventually Samaranch reform the entire renewable energy industry’s potential.
