Aliens Send a Message to UK: Wind Power Sucks
What on Earth could have caused this wind turbine in the UK to break so catastrophically? Let's skip all rational explanations and jump right to the conclusion that is on everyone's lips—aliens did it. More » -

Rock Port, Missouri, is First US City to Generate All Its Electricity From Wind Turbines
(Photo by Steve Morse)Not to be outdone by those crazy Danish bastards out on the isle of Samso, Science Daily reports an equally crazy group of Missourian bastards in Rock Port now generate all their electricity using wind turbines. Rock Port went completely wind-powered last week, making use of the 75 wind turbines spread out across three Missouri counties, and local experts are excited about the potential for wind power throughout the state. However, PopSci thinks it won't be so easy to make this a widespread trend in the US. More » -

AeroCam Turbine First to be Blowin' in the Wind for Under $1 Per Watt
The "$1 per Watt" barrier may not sound as impressive as the sound barrier, but this next-gen wind turbine is the first, and has an unusual design. The AeroCam's horizontal-axis, flat-blade shape has blades that're dynamically angled to maximize wind-catching. It's also compact, so can fit into urban environments, and captures wind from any direction. Plus, AeroCam turbines make less noise and vibration than conventional ones, wear out less quickly and cost less to build. They may even be cheaper than solar panels, so it seems like a win-win-win. Since a 250kW unit will cost $250,000, it'll be your energy suppliers, not you, that ends up owning one. [EnergyDaily and Inhabitat] -
