Eolic Wall

We created a ground-breaking modular wind energy system for distributed generation that reaches the same levels of efficiency as the gigantic windmills but at a fraction of the size thanks to its capability to accelerate wind speed and its unique magnetic levitating rotor. What problem are we solving? Two facts explain what problem we address. First fact: around 40% of all solar energy installed capacity in the world comes from installed PV panels at homes, businesses, and communities. Second fact: in the case of wind energy, the figure is around 1% only. Unlike solar energy, with a substantial share in distributed generation, wind energy is concentrated mainly in wind farms. The reason behind that is related to the fact that for a windmill to be efficient, it has to be gigantic. This means that conventional windmills do not reach high efficiency at a lower scale, which significantly restrains distributed generation expansion, preventing homes, communities, and businesses from exploiting their wind resources. What is our solution? Our solution is based on "Eolic Cells," which are novel aerodynamic structures designed to augment wind speed to harness more power from the same wind resource. Additionally, Eolic Cells work with a magnetic levitation rotor that minimizes friction and increases efficiency even further. Unlike conventional windmills with low efficiency at a distributed-generation scale, the Eolic Cells can be efficient even at lower scales and, thus, help widespread wind distributed generation among homes, communities, and businesses.
