There’s diminishing returns when it comes to adding more blades to a wind turbine and if there were less blades, the turbine would have to spin faster which is apparently not a very good thing when it comes to controlling a turbine. That’s basically why we settled on the three bladed wind turbine system. I think it also looks coolest?
