 |
|
Designers Nicola Delon, Julien Choppin and Raphael Menard were faced with the issue of how to make wind power a more practical form of energy.
The result was Wind-it, an electrical tower/wind turbine hybrid. What is great about the design is that the wind turbine fits within already existing electrical towers, essentially removing the debate about where best to locate wind turbines.
The design just won the Next Generation design competition for its advanced thinking yet great simplicity. The Wind-it seems like the best of both worlds!
Wind-it answers one of the greatest challenges to the development of wind power: where to site wind turbines. Choppin, Delon and Menard’s design uses existing infrastructure - the towers and pylons that dot the more than 157,000 miles of high voltage power lines in the U.S. - to locate their turbines, which can be stacked within already sited structures. Moreover, Wind-it solves the problem of linking energy generation and electricity transmission in the same way - by co-locating them.
