Wind Turbine Works With a Breeze
New Wind Technology
Green Energy Gamechanger from Army Corps of Engineers
This is a new breakthrough in wind turbine technology inspired by Venetian blinds. It can generate electricity from a breeze too light for standard wind turbines. It harvests electricity from gentle breezes under 9 mph.
New Patent
It's the invention of a team at the US Army Corps of Engineers. They just received a patent for it. It's a prototype device they believe can be scaled up to provide wind power to communities in low wind areas.
Renewable Energy from a Breeze
The device consists of eight adjustable elastic tension gradient strips mounted vertically to PVC tubes at the top and bottom. A slight breeze against the strips causes them to move and push a copper induction coil at the base of each to move along a magnet filled pipe and create a current. The team is looking to further develop the renewable energy technology for commercial uses.
