It is not very often that you get to harness clean energy in such a simple and hassle-free way, and while many experts believe that putting up wind turbines in urban environments is not a viable option even in the long run, we are reaching a point where ecology is taking over the economy part. While you may initially have to spend a bit more than you would wish to, this delightful little wind turbine will most likely woo you enough to get a bit loose with your pocket strings. The Energy Ball is all about spinning around in a silent way to make up for your energy needs.
The Energy Ball works on the principle of the Venturi Effect, making use of the change in fluid pressure at different points to produce motion. In simple terms, it acts a lot more effectively than wind turbines and is a lot more quiet and adept for city life. The wind turbine can be put on your roof or in your backyard, and it will start immediately producing energy. The efficiency is pretty high, and all that is achieved without changing the ergonomics of your home in a huge way. While we would like solid figures on its energy production capabilities, the Energy Ball is still a wonderful little eco-delight.
