HAWT, Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines from Gaia Wind, Their ...
In contrast, all vertical axis wind turbines, and most proposed airborne wind turbine designs, involve various types of reciprocating actions, requiring airfoil surfaces to backtrack against the wind for part of the cycle. Backtracking against the wind leads to inherently lower efficiency. Disadvantages of Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines

Design Alternatives - For the Win(d)
The first decision made was to choose the vertical axis wind turbine over the more standard and familiar horizontal axis wind turbine. The more familiar horizontal axis wind turbine looks like a windmill while the vertical axis models rotate around a vertical shaft. Each design has their own particular sets of pros and cons.

These are called "horizontal-axis wind turbines," or "HAWTs." A "vertical-axis wind turbine," or "VAWT," has a rotor that revolves around an axis that is perpendicular – or vertical – to the ground, similar to a barbershop pole or corkscrew. Many variations of HAWTs and VAWTs exist or are under development.

Turbine Options: Vertical Axis vs. Horizontal Axis - UrbanWind
While spinning or at rest, a vertical axis turbine appears as a solid object. The generator does not have to be installed on the top of a tower. Important for maintenance considerations. Disadvantages: The lower the place, the slower the wind. This reduces the turbines efficiency which makes it less cost effective. Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine.

Vertical-axis wind turbines: what makes them better ...
Efficiency – When the wind blows on the blades of a HAWT, all of them contribute to energy production. When wind blows on a vertical-axis turbine, only a fraction of the blades generate torque while the other parts merely 'go along for the ride'. The result is comparably reduced efficiency in power generation.
