Here is a wonderful piece of innovation that beautifully marries visual art with energy-efficiency. This is a new vertical-axis wind turbine named quietrevolution. What makes this turbine so special is not only its beauty, but also because it is well-suited to both dense urban areas and open spaces.
The blades of this model are embedded with LEDs — hence called ‘wind lights’. The self-generating light with the spinning blades create a mesmerizing colored light show. Besides the beauty, it generates energy from wind in a silent and vibration-free way. The turbine reveals how simple it is to generate wind power in a durable manner.
Thanks to XCO2, foe bringing this wonderful piece of art wind generator. XCO2 is a UK-based low-carbon engineering and consultancy firm.
