The technology of the Wind Harvester® unlocks the untapped potential of existing wind farms by harnessing the turbulent wind resources at 4-20 meters above the ground. Our vertical axis turbine's unique design allows for seamless integration beneath tall turbines, effectively doubling energy production of wind farms without expanding their geographic footprint. Wind Harvesters can also operate in areas where tall turbines are prohibited or unable to operate due to turbulence, even up to Category 5 hurricane gusts. The Wind Harvester's steel and aluminum construction and patented design allows it to operate for over 70 years - 3 times the lifespan of conventional turbines. This results in a long-term, low-cost production of clean energy. At the end of its operational life, 99% of turbine components can be reused or recycled. Wind Harvesters are wildlife friendly, posing less of a hazard to flying animals than horizontal axis turbines do.
