Changing gears: A look at wind turbines
The wind turbine industry faces an ever-increasing challenge to reduce the cost of energy production, decrease operational and maintenance costs, and increase lifespan.

In our recent Spring issue of Energy Global, Gary Rodgers, CEO of Magnomatics, details the role magnetic gears play in helping achieve these goals.
