Copyright © 2012-2013 - UCI Wind Energy Project

Welcome to the University of California Irvine Wind Energy Project 2012-2013. This design project is one topic of renewable energy program and the objective is to develop and manufacture a small-scale wind turbine. This year’s goal is to design, procure components, construct, and do experimental test of a small-scale wind turbine.

With economic development and growing demand for energy, conventional energy sources have become increasingly unable to meet the world demand for energy. Meanwhile, the growing environmental degradation and pollution makes wind energy as a new type of renewable energy. As a consequence, the amount of electric energy actually produced by wind turbine applications is more and more significant, becoming a relevant part both in domestic and industrial sectors.
