A PAVA (parallel and vertical axis) turbine includes a plurality of wing assemblies having vertical pivot shafts extending between two vertically spaced end assemblies that are joined to a central driveshaft assembly. The wing assemblies are rotatable about their respective pivot axes from a drive position in which they extend radially outwardly from the central axis and transverse to incident fluid flow to maximally capture fluid flow and rotate the turbine, to a glide position in which the wings extend tangentially to the direction of rotation and parallel to incident fluid flow to minimize drag. The wings may have articulating flaps rotating outwardly from the wing assembly in the drive quadrant to capture more of the passing fluid flow.
