Vertical axis wind turbine
Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) in addition to being simpler and cheaper to build have the following advantages:
They are always facing the wind – no need for steering into the wind. Have greater surface area for energy capture – can be many times greater. Are more efficient in gusty winds – already facing the gust Can be installed in more locations – on roofs, along highways, in parking lots. Do not kill birds and wild – life – slow moving and highly visible. Can be scaled more easily – from Milli watts to megawatts. Can be significantly less expensive to build – are inherently simpler. Can have low maintenance downtime – mechanisms at or near ground level Produce less noise – low speed means less noise Are more esthetically pleasing – to some one. igama u TEBZA no MAMPE |
