A blade assembly is for a wind turbine, such as a vertical axis wind turbine. The blade assembly includes 3 or more blades and has an axis of rotation about which in use the blades rotate. In one variation the blades are elongated and have first and second ends and are twisted between their ends. The blades are positioned along the axis of rotation in a manner such that the first (bottom) end of each blade has a portion that has substantially the same angular orientation as a portion of the second (top) end of an adjacent blade. Alternatively or additionally the blades are arranged for orientation along the axis of rotation and are twisted about an axis of twist. The axis of twist substantially coincides with the axis of rotation of the wind turbine. |
