New Wind Turbine Design Good for Rural, Urban Environment

VAWT > HAWT all day baby! MEGLEV all the way.

i have been to the largest wind farms in oklahoma, they are not noisey, the wind blowing across your year is enough o drowned them out. funny thing though i saw no dead birds on the ground. peace

As the opening video shows, the large wind farms don’t use a vertical design because of the poor yield they usually get? How many watts can you get in a 6mph wind? 6 mph is the cut in speed of the most efficient home wind turbines.

that thing is junk and is to noisey!

If proper studies were done ahead of time, bird death should be non-existent. They have built a wind farm along a bird migration route here in Sweden. There are 12 turbines that 1.5 million birds pass through each year. They found one bird death between 1999-2003. And they monitor it by sight and by radar at night.

Interesting.
Does anyone know what wind speed is required for 1.2Kwh? Completed (installed) cost? How would this unit compare to the Whisper?

it seems to be a very effective piece of technology. It is cost effective and will ultimately, decrease our dependency on fuel. Let’s do it!

This is the way it SHOULD be done, vs. desecrating and industrializing so many scenic landscapes.

does the wind stop blowing at night where you live?

Power can be stored as hot water or by charging batteries. I didn’t use the link to see the website, but it’s normal logic thinking based on ordinary media information

wind fan+ small generator=electricity
if you live in the windy area, it will produce the electricity 24 hours none stop , you pay no electricity bill and you can also sell the the extra electricity to electric company, it depend on how many wind turbine you have it. just like money maker machine in your back yard.

I’m all for wind power!

the turbine?
