The National Renewable Energy Laboratory said it plans to award $2.9 million to 11 manufacturers of small- and medium-scale wind turbine technology through its Competitiveness Improvement Project (CIP).
The awards are intended to help manufacturers of wind turbines less than 1 MW in capacity to optimize their designs to reduce costs, increase energy production, and enhance grid reliability, resilience, and compatibility with solar and storage systems. The awards are also intended to accelerate pathways to commercialize the turbines.
