Solid State Wind Energy Generator. A Revolutionary Device





In this video, we are going to look at Solid State Wind Energy Generators. These devices create electricity and have no moving parts. Given that most of the maintenance costs in traditional wind turbines are because of moving parts, from gearbox to blades, this can be a breakthrough development.

Where most wind turbines generate electricity through mechanical energy, the EWICON (short for Electrostatic WInd energy CONvertor) creates potential energy with charged particles – in this case, water droplets. The current design consists of a steel frame holding a series of insulated tubes arranged horizontally. Each tube contains several electrodes and nozzles, which continually release positively-charged water particles into the air. As the particles are blown away, the voltage of the device changes and creates an electric field, which can be transferred to the grid for everyday use.
