According to its website, Windpower Monthly is ”the leading news magazine of the international wind energy business, publishing non-stop since 1985.” It is a subscription-based website that features news, reports, intelligence data, insights, and expert papers that “provide up-to-date information on the key technologies and developments in products and services that are driving competitive advantage and efficiencies in the global wind power sector.” The website is subscription-based; prices vary depending on which package you choose.
3. Recharge
Identifying itself as “the global source for renewable energy news & intelligence,” Recharge is one of our top resources for wind energy news as well as solar energy news. The site features stories about offshore wind, wind energy in North America, global wind farm news, and more.
4. Offshore Wind
Offshore Wind shares wind energy news and updates on “wind farms, projects, markets, vessels, equipment, turbines, research, contractors, and the authorities dominating these markets.” According to the site, whether you’re an employee on a project, crew member, project manager, or executive, Offshore Wind is a must-read source for developments in the offshore wind industry.
5. Midwest Energy News
Midwest Energy News launched in 2010 as “a nonprofit news site dedicated to keeping stakeholders, policymakers, and citizens informed of the changes taking place as the Midwest shifts from fossil fuels to a clean energy system.” This wind power news site takes a unique perspective, as it is focused only on a specific region of the United States. The site isn’t solely about wind energy, however—you can find news about solar and renewable energy as well.
6. Reputable National & Local Newspapers
Wind energy professionals should keep up to date with local, national, and global news sites for information on new projects and RFPs that may be worth pursuing.
