Wind Power Looks Like Tree

Tapping into the small turbulent currents of air that blow around cities a new french invention called the wind tree could bring wind power.

Wind power looks like tree. Each ones use its 72 leaf shaped wind turbines as a silent power source while the trunk and branches. The company s founder jérôme michaud larivière came up with the idea while in a paris square when he saw the leaves tremble when there was not a breath of air. The unobtrusive design is actually pleasing to look at is reported to be silent and operates in low wind unlike most wind turbines and this has the added effect of increasing overall efficiency and power output. That s not even close to cost competitive with solar power.

Then there s the price. Though the tree looks like a piece of modern art that would fit in at any urban area it also provides a very important function. New wind a research and development company in france has developed this new technology based on the look and feel of a tree. A single wind tree costs about 49 500 about 56 000 to deliver and install.

A french company called new wind is installing tree shaped wind turbines at the place de la concorde in paris france. The wind tree is a steel structure that stands 9 8 meters high about 32 feet and 7 2 meters wide 23 6 feet according to a data sheet. The average production. Each aeroleaf is about 3 feet high.

Dubbed the wind tree the innovative wind turbines are designed to look like the real thing. Take a look at the complete technical datasheet equivalences. The wind tree can exploit all types of wind from gentle breezes to powerful gusts of wind in both urban and rural environments.
