Dynamically reconfigurable wind turbine blade assembly

A reconfigurable wind turbine blade comprising:

• a blade;
• an actuator including a first set of actuator wires embedded in said blade with said first set of actuator wires extending parallel to each other and are configured diagonally at an angle transverse to a lengthwise centerline of said blade, said actuator adapted to receive electrical power to twist said blade;
• an actuator power regulator joined to said actuator and adapted to initiate operation of said actuator to reconfigure said blade by said twisting action to obtain a selected configuration under current wind conditions;
• a blade load sensor embedded in said blade and adapted to measure deflection of said blade, and thereby the configuration of said blade, and capable of providing a signal reporting the measured deflection;
• a control computer for sending commands to said actuator power regulator, and continuously adjusting the commands in response to the signals received indicative of the configuration of said blade;
• a wind speed sensor disposed proximate the blade, and adapted to measure wind speed and to report to said control computer;
• and
• an electrical power source, joined to supply electrical power to said control computer and to said actuator power regulator.
