Lighter windmills thanks to superconductivityIt is a windmill on the Danish coast at Thyborøn that is the world’s first: recently the conventional electrical generator, with permanent magnets, was replaced by one with superconductors. As a result, the weight and size of the new generator significantly reduced while at the same time, it is capable of delivering the same output power. Another advantage is the minimal use of rare earth metals. Researchers of the University of Twente took an important part in the development and testing of the superconducting generator, within the European EcoSwing project.Read more
