New Website On-line
Since the early days of generating energy by wind power it has been a goal to increase the amount of energy generated. Over the years, manufacturers have developed bigger turbines with more capacity. The top five manufacturers seem to have a race to have the biggest turbine in the marketplace. The 5MW turbine from REpower, with a height of 120 metres, is the biggest turbine operational at present. I am sure the competition will follow.

Heading for the Sea ...
After many years of building onshore wind farms, the industry is nowadays more and more focusing on offshore wind farms. And it seems that most countries currently active in this field are thinking in terms of a quantum leap. When comparing the capacity that is scheduled for offshore with the current installed onshore capacity, some people think things may be happening too quickly.

A successful launch…
Although the New Year will already be a few weeks old by the time you read this, may I wish you all the best for 2005. For us the last months of 2004 were an exciting and successful period. During 2004 EWEC we launched the first issue of our magazine and we have been overwhelmed with the warm and positive response to our initiative. Based on the reactions we have received and the number of subscription forms arriving every day we can say that a magazine with the focus on the technology side of the industry is very much welcomed. It seems that Windtech International is filling a gap. If you have not yet taken advantage of our free subscription offer I encourage you to fill out the form on page 48 or enter your details online at www.windtech-international.com. Our free offer still stands.
