Abstract
A vertical axis wind turbine 100 having a bearing assembly coupled to a stator of a generator 108, the wind turbine comprising a tower 102; a generator, comprising a rotor 114 and a stator 116; and a bearing assembly110 . The bearing assembly is coupled to the tower, and is adapted to support a substantially vertical main mast 104 of the wind turbine. The bearing assembly is also adapted to resist axial loads, radial loads and moment loads from the main mast. The stator of the generator is coupled to the bearing assembly, and the rotor of the generator is adapted to be coupled to the main mast by means of the bearing assembly. The ratio of the distance X from the mid plane of the bearing to the mid plane of the generator rotor to the length of the main mast is less than 0.1. The invention also relates to a bearing assembly for a vertical axis wind turbine, and to methods of installing a vertical axis wind turbine and maintaining a vertical axis wind turbine.
