In 2010, Caltech researchers arranged six wind turbines using patterns inspired by fish schools. The design aimed to reduce turbulence and improve energy output. Tests a year later produced striking results. The layout reportedly generated up to 10 times more power per unit of land than conventional arrangements. The experiment showed how ideas from nature could inspire more efficient wind farms while making better use of limited space.
