#AD - Find out more about the incredible AMD Threadripper Pro 7000 WX-Series Processors here: This strange looking turbine caught my attention as I was scrolling through the news. It is by a company called TouchWind and used a single large blade. Not only that, but it tilts up and down depending on the wind speeds. The idea is for it to be used in offshore settings, with some incredible plans for how it could work. They are aiming to significantly reduce the costs of off shore wind energy, and maybe one day to compete with onshore wind and solar energy. To get to the bottom of this turbine, I spoke with engineers at TouchWind, as well as industry experts.
