Technology Summary
Revolutionary Approach To Wind Energy Capture
The sails of the CR Wind Energy System intercept the wind, create a vortex and focus its energy in a chamber at the center of the enclosure.
The fortified, hidden-in-plain-sight stationary structure harvests wind from all directions. Does not need to be pointed into wind.
70 year design life. Survives 200mph winds.
Produces 2x power of typical alternative energy technology.
Silent, stationary, no shadow flicker, people and wildlife friendly. Blends in with built-environment.
Dynamic Chamber
At the center of our enclosure is a chamber housing the rotor. The chamber dynamically changes size and shape responding to ambient wind speed and direction, optimizing air flow and power production.
Easy Deployment
Ground mounted. No tower or foundation, connect with solar arrays.
Next Generation Rotor
Our revolutionary, lightweight high performance rotor starts at lower wind speeds, stable at high wind speeds and is designed to drive multiple redundant generators.
Minimum Maintenance
All units are designed to operate in extreme and harsh environments with minimal maintenance.
Deployment, operation and maintenance training included.
10-year warranty and optional Investment Protection Program extended warranty and service / maintenance program.
Proudly 100% Made in the US.
