turbine

Ericsson unveiled their new Tower Tube, which is an eco friendly communication tower.

...the company claims that their 100cm prototype (V100) could produce up to 15% of the energy consumed in an average Swedish home and it can be directly plugged in to supply the power. Their V200 model (198cm) could produce up to 50% or a household’s needs and the silent rotation means that it won’t be a disturbing presence in a residential setting.

Looking for a small, quiet wind turbine to stick on your roof and generate free energy for you whenever there's a breeze? Take a look at the Energy Ball.

A UK-based company called Quiet Revolution is taking Europe by storm with its rooftop wind generator that has blades designed to revolve around a verticle axis.

Student Max Robson, an amateur inventor, built his prototype using rubbish collected from bins including an old bike frame and wheel bearings, the magneto from a Vespa, a battery from a Ford Fiesta and bits of wood to create a wind turbine.

Everybody wants to have a cleaner Earth, but few of them take any actions. One of those people is Doug Selsam, who designed high-power wind turbines that can generate enough energy to power a home. The wind turbines measure about 14-18 inches in diameter and they can generate an impressive amount of 200 watts for a 20 mph wind, but the wind turbines could do better if the winds are stronger.

I recently found a PDF describing a step by step method, with pictures, of how to make your own wind-powered free energy to power something up: a light bulb, your TV, laptop, or a small device. Or even charge a battery to light your house during the nights.

The Selsam Superturbine is an offshore wind turbine concept that uses several small fast spinning rotors to create electricity rather than one large rotor, which is standard.

Wave power has improved very much and it still didn't reach its full potential! more of those soon.. we have to replace oil and coal-based energy

Wind power has gained a lot of popularity over the last few years. We've seen mega-watt wind installations through out the world, the development of wind co-ops, and a flurry of small and micro wind turbines released to the residential market. Most of these small and micro turbines are expensive and don't generate enough energy to be cost effective.

General Electric's biggest spending on "environmental initiatives" now to deflect criticism, corporate style, is ADVERTISING.

The MagLev magnetic wind turbine blows away the competition as its low resistance and bird-friendly design are making waves throughout the industry.

Average vehicle speeds on the valley highways are approximately 70 mph. Using average annual wind speeds of 10 mph as a baseline, each single wind turbine will produce 9,600KwH of energy annually, which is enough to fully power a 700 square foot apartment. The design is a retrofitting replacement of the horizontal steel tube that currently holds freeway signage.

I found a blog that describes an extraordinary idea for making electricity from wind. It is a highway-based wind turbine, and I have never heard anything like that before. The idea is a student’s semester project.

Small enough to sit on the roof of a house. Meter in length, half a meter in height, blades rotated by wind. Can be used in conjunction with solar panels. Combination enough to drive a whole house, and feed back into the electricity grid.
