summary

This article discusses how researchers are studying fish schools to gain insights into optimizing wind power generation. It explains how fish schools navigate efficiently and make coordinated movements, which can be applied to improve the design and efficiency of wind turbines. By observing the hydrodynamics of fish schools, scientists are exploring ways to reduce turbulence and drag in wind turbines, ultimately increasing their energy output. The article highlights ongoing research in this field and suggests that biomimicry of fish behavior could lead to significant advancements in wind power technology.
