Most wind turbines face the wind—and there is a good reason for that. Since the 1980s, wind turbine developers have been using what is called the "Danish concept" for their designs—three blades, positioned upwind (i.e., facing the wind), that are engineered to keep facing the wind to maximize energy production.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
