Eco Factor: Bladeless wind turbine to generate up to 10KW of power.
Solar Aero has recently been awarded a patent for a new bladeless wind turbine, the Fuller Wind Turbine, which is being claimed to be entirely safe for wildlife and as an added advantage, it generates electricity without any noise.
The entire assembly is contained in the housing and the only movement visible to an observer is the movement of the housing as it adjusts to the direction of the wind. The company expects that their wind turbine will be able to deliver power at a comparable cost to coal-fired power plants.
