Modern industrial wind turbines typically rotate clockwise from an observer's perspective, with the blade pitch between 30º and 35º. This value is fixed and cannot be changed, aiming to optimize power output for the power generator over a specific range of wind speeds. The choice of the rotational direction impacts the wake if the wind profile changes direction with height. We then explain why a turbine looks as it does today: why it has three blades, why the blades taper and twist, what limits how quickly the blades rotate, and how the blades generate power.
