Home wind turbine at the price of Iphone was developed in India

It’s no secret that alternative energy is not to come cheap. But if we say that you can install in your home wind turbine at the price of iPhone, do you believe us?! You may say that it is impossible, but the two brothers from Kerala (India) could prove otherwise. Anoop and Arun George are founded a startup called Avant Garde Innovations, whose main specialty is the production of wind turbines for private households. The cost of a wind turbine is 750 dollars, and capacity is 3 kWh. The turbine is small and resembles an ordinary ventilator that is mounted to the ceiling.

Anoop and Arun George looks for ways of poverty reduction not only in their own country but also worldwide. Thus, about one billion people worldwide do not use the available energy.

Brother`s home wind turbine can generate completely free electricity over twenty years.
Indian development is recognized worldwide and makes the list of twenty of the best developments in clean energy within Cleantech (Global Program). In addition, the UN has included Indian startup directory to the investment clean energy and the size of the fund was 1 billion dollars. Recognition is an invitation to the 7th conference on clean energy, which takes place in Silicon Valley.

Australian energy problems can be solved by Ilon Mask

The beginning of 2017 has become difficult for Australia. In the state of South Australia has occurred several accidents at power assets, which led to the power cut of large industrial plants for two weeks. Two-week power cut cost businesses a lot of money.
Ilon Mask, the head of the world-famous Tesla Corporation, made a very favorable offer to the Australian authorities. He claims that he can solve all Australian problems related to energy. Ilon Mask suggested assembling an electric battery priced at $25 million. Assembling time is 100 days. If the company of Ilon Mask infringe terms, the battery will be mounted and delivered completely free of charge.
It is interesting to note that Tesla Corporation recently has released latest solution to the Australian market – Powerwall 2. It is a lithium-ion battery that can save energy for further use in everyday life and alternate power. Such products help to make a step forward in solving Australian problems related to energy.

Japanese know-how: typhoon wind-powered generator

Typhoons and tsunami are serious problems in Japan. The destructive power of typhoons brings a lot of troubles to the Japanese, but do not deny that hurricanes are a source of alternative energy. Only this year, the Japanese suffered 6-powerful typhoons.

Challenergy (Japanese known company) found a solution to curb of the destructive forces of nature. Specialists patented a wind-powered generator. Certainly vertical wind-powered generator is not unique. But vertical wind-powered generator, which can process the movement of air currents in the peaceful energy without damage to the equipment, is something new.

Astushi Shimizu, project manager, says that only one typhoon can produce kinetic energy equivalent to half of all electricity in the world. In addition, the project manager says that Japan has great potential for wind energy production. So his company built wind-powered generator operates Magnus effect – the transverse force that causes an object that rotates, to deviate from the straight path. This scheme provides control over all elements of the equipment.

Despite the fact that the effectiveness of traditional windmills on a quarter higher than the Japanese know-how, but it equipment is able to survive the typhoon. According to the analysis of Challenergy sufficient number of wind-powered generators can provide power for all of Japan for 50 years. And it is strong enough only one typhoon.

Such developments are important not only for the world, but most of Japan. This is due to the fact that for a long time country opposed to nuclear power. Thus, by 2010, all Atomic Power Station in Japan had to produce 60% of the total energy of the country. But the accident at the Fukushima-1 in March 2011 forced the government to review energy policy. This accident was not the last – another 3 less massive accidents.

Today Japan imports 84% of its electricity. This is also due to the destructive power of typhoons that destroy equipment. Therefore, the only green source is the sun. But in July 2016 in Okinawa prototype installation was set to be tested in real conditions typhoon. The company plans to install the installation at the National Stadium, which will be commissioned in 2020. That year the country will host the Olympic Games.

Dubai`s company has developed Smart Palm, which is powered by the sun and charge the battery of smartphones

Anyone who has ever been in Dubai knows that this is one of the most advanced hi tech cities in the world. It is old hat, but one of the local companies upgraded their own product – Smart Palm. The previous version was a source for charging the battery of smartphone and Wi-Fi. The new construction has all properties of previous version, and display information about points of interest, get directions and help choose a shady place to rest.

The first Smart Palm was installed in Park Zabeel, and already updated version was posted on the beach Burj Al Arab. Burj Al Arab is one of the most luxurious hotel complexes in the country.
Smart Palm has a grand design. Palm leaves have solar panels, and the construction reminds photovoltaic installation with solar trackers in the shape of a flower. Do you think that is over? Only good design? Believe us, this is not all. Smart Palm reaches 6.5 m, and power at the expense of solar modules with a total area of 13.8 m2. Photovoltaic panel’s efficiency is 21% and fully meets the needs of the design.

Construction has 8 ports for charging mobile gadgets, and provides Wi-Fi, which operates within a radius of 100 m. The developers have included many people to thirst selfie, so in some structures mounted cameras. The monitor continuously broadcast news, weather and transmitted information on various services. Here, both tourists and locals can learn about the message of the government. Each design has alarm button, which will work in case of fever. Clock is monitored using CCTV cameras.

Developers talk about plans to install more than 100 Smart Palms in different areas of the city. Company D-Idea Media (developer) said that their development is an integral part of Smart cities and is a symbiosis of green technology, free internet and easy access to information.
