Nano Trees – The Latest Renewable Energy Resource


Nano Trees – The Latest Renewable Energy Resource

Recently with the emerging nanotechnology, scientists are working on the new concept called the nanoleaves that will help producing electricity with the help of solar power which can serve the future demands. This is an article on renewable energy, and in particular the innovative technology of artificial trees and leaves known as Biomimicry. To accomplish this goal a company named SOLAR BOTANIC has developed an innovative and efficient energy solution by combining Biomimicry and nano technologies in unique, patented, artificial trees.

Solar Botanic have created what they call nanoleaves that produce electricity via photovoltaic (light), thermo voltaic (heat), and piezovoltaic (wind) means. Solar Botanic is claiming that a single one of their trees, depending on size and location, can produce between 2,000 and 12,000 kWh per year, plus the trees provide shade and function as a windbreak.

I think Log 9 Materials is listening to this.

VORTEX developed an innovative bladeless wind turbine - A break-through in the wind energy sector


VORTEX has developed an innovative wind turbine that would represent a break-through in the wind energy sector. This aero-generator is a new paradigm of harnessing wind, with a disruptive technology to generate energy from the wind without blades. This may be one of solutions to generate wind energy in urban areas.

The technology seeks to optimize aerogenerator´s specifications as maintenance and operational requirements, amortization costs, noise, logistics, environmental impact and design whilst producing energy in a secure, clean and efficient way, and cheaper than current small wind turbines (SWT).

VORTEX built a 6-meters wind turbine pilot prototype in Spain, which generates up to 40% of energy solely from wind. The technology is being scaled up from small devices to medium. Their goal for the Phase 2-SMEInst is to scale-up and test a prototype up to 275 meters and 100W power.

VORTEX produces an affordable and cheaper renewable energy for our end-users: private individuals, general public, households, wind energy cooperatives, energy services companies (ESCOs), manufactures and distributors, businesses, utilities, etc.
