Apart from being more dependable than solar energy, wind energy has always been a secondary choice for all eco-minded home owners. Reasons include bird kills, noise and the decrease in the output when wind changes direction. A concept wind turbine designed by Industrie-SA can answer all these problems with a clever design. read more »

Eco Factor: Wind turbine inspecting robot. Recently news surfaced that a wind turbine in England was hammered by an alien spacecraft. We don’t want to unravel any answers to the ET mystery here, but we just want to acknowledge the fact that wind turbines have always been subjected to degradation which can any day result in a catastrophe. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Fa read more »

Eco Factor: Highly-efficient wind turbine design. FloDesign Wind Turbine has developed a new turbine design that could generate electricity at half the cost of conventional wind turbine. The design has been inspired from jet engines and avoids the wind losses associated with wind turbines. Normally, when wind strikes a turbine, about half of the wind is forced around the blades and t read more »

Eco Factor: Multipurpose robot is powered by solar energy. According to a research conducted by International Federation of Robotics, there were 3.4 million personal service robots in use by the end of 2007. Since most of these robots are programmed to perform a specific task their number is expected to grow by leaps and bounds. read more »

Eco Factor: Wind turbine design for places where windmills are not efficient. A conventional windmill proves to be efficient in open places and farms where there is no obstruction to slow down the velocity of wind. Such windmills don’t prove to be an effective source of renewable energy in busy and dense urban cities. A professor at the Cleveland State University, Dr. Majid Rashidi read more »

Eco Factor: Raser Technologies’ geothermal project to provide 10MW of green power. We all want our houses to be powered by solar panels and wind turbines, but apart from their dependence on local climatic conditions, the high installation price of both these technologies has kept them away from global adoption. Until future technology delivers cheap and efficient solar panels and win read more »

Eco Factor: Wave powered hydroelectric generator. Efforts have always been made to harness the tremendous power of the ocean waves, be it tidal generators or ocean wave turbines, all generators prove to be an expensive way to generate green electricity. Searaser is one such generator that can provide green electricity at an affordable cost using the same power of the ocean waves. read more »
