Abstract: A wind turbine, having a generator to generate electricity and including a first rotatable power element and a second rotatable power element adapted for contra-rotation relative to one another about a generator axis, a pair of rotors to convert wind energy into rotational energy and generally disposed at a first end of the generator and adapted for rotation about a rotor axis offset from the generator axis, and including a first rotor and a second rotor wherein the first rotor is disposed between the second rotor and the generator, and a transmission to couple the pair of rotors to the generator, and including a first driveshaft coupled to the first rotor, a first drive element coupled to the first driveshaft, a first driven element coupled to the first drive element and to the first rotatable power element of the generator, a second driveshaft coupled to the second rotor and extending through the first driveshaft, a second drive element coupled to the second driveshaft, and a second driven element coupled t
