Largest vertical axis wind turbine

A 2021 study simulated a VAWT configuration that allowed VAWTs to beat a comparable HAWT installation by 15%. An 11,500-hour simulation demonstrated the increased efficiency, in part by using a grid formation. One effect is to avoid downstream turbulence stemming from grid-arranged HAWTs that lowers efficiency. Other optimizations included array angle, rotation direction, turbine spacing, and number of rotors. [pdf]

Photovoltaic panels pond fish farming

. “Fishing and solar complementarity” refers to the combination of fish farming and photovoltaic power generation. An array of photovoltaic panels is erected above the water surface of the fish pond.. Aquavoltaics is the practice of installing solar panels around fish farms and other aquaculture sites. The solar panels generate electricity, while the fish continue to be cultivated for food. [pdf]
