A wind turbine blade system that includes blades with an internal airflow path that extends within the blade from a location at the tip of the blade to a location near the base or root of the blade. A ram air turbine positioned inside each of the blades, along the airflow path, the ram air turbine being adapted for generate electricity, and thus the current output may then be connected to an electric load, so that air is ingested at the tip of the blade as each blade rotates.
