About

Wind energy potential is currently not fully harnessed due to environmental and social impact of conventional wind turbines, such as noise and visual pollution, and threat to wildlife Although LCoE of wind energy has decreased over the past years, costs can be further reduced by reducing operational and maintenance costs. Large scale wind turbines have proven to be efficient and successful, small wind turbine market remains limited despite its huge potential Wind farms located either offshore or in coastal areas are facing challenges related to oxidation and corrosion, driving operation and maintenance costs up. Our Vortex bladeless turbines enable sustainable wind energy production in areas where conventional wind energy cannot be or should not be. Below we list the most differential characteristics: - Low maintenance cost - People and wildlife friendly - Silent working - Limited visual impact - Lightweight - No gear or shaft inside - Immediate answer to wind direction changes - Reduction of required space
