Short Turbines for Untapped Turbulent Wind
Mid-level wind resources need a compact vertical-axis wind turbine that can survive in the gusting, swirling turbulence that is found at 15 to 100 feet above the ground in the world’s windiest locations.
- When placed in wind farms, Wind Harvesters will often double or more the land’s energy output with minimal environmental impacts.
- At least 140 gigawatts of power—enough electricity for 80 million households —would be available by adding Wind Harvesters to 20% of wind farms that were operating in 2020.
- Wind farms are a vast, easy-to-tap market with zoning and key infrastructure already in place.
- Besides using turbulent mid-level wind under tall turbines, there are many other windy properties worldwide where traditional turbines cannot go, but ours can.
- The potential market for short vertical-axis turbines should exceed $1 trillion in the next decade.

The Potential
Our Flagship Product
Introducing Wind Harvesters™
Wind Harvesters are compact H-type vertical axis wind turbines that generate power from highly energetic and turbulent middle layers of wind that traditional turbines can’t use. Placed three feet apart from each other in arrays with closely spaced rows, they have the highest energy density of any renewable energy technology available.
Adding to the Grid
Augmenting Wind Farms
Wind Harvesters can double the energy output of existing wind farms while improving grid reliability. They operate under and around traditional turbines and can increase the energy production of each.
Energy System Integration
Distributed Energy Production
Groups of compact Wind Harvesters, often in conjunction with solar and storage, can reliably supply inexpensive power to our homes and businesses via the distributed grid from windy properties that cannot fit in or secure permits for tall turbines.
“Our mission is to have short Vertical -Axis Wind Turbines rapidly increase wind energy around the world. Our strategy is to be the leading designer of VAWT technology and license our patents and products to other companies to achieve this goal.”
