/* Blades */
|-
| It reduces the cost and weight of the turbine. These are rarely used due to tower shadow effects, needs counter weights on the other side of the blade, less stability.

It is also less stable. It saves the cost and weight of one rotor blade.[[Image:two.jpeg|center|300px|thumb|Fig 9(b) [http://www.trendir.com/green/?start=15 Two blade turbine]]]
|Modern wind turbines uses three blade concept. Because this structure have hight strength to withstand heavy wind storms. Less effect due to tower shadow. Produces high output
