LONDON, England – A startup has taken a major step forward in tackling the global fossil fuel energy crisis, by making a unique “motionless” rooftop wind generator that can deliver up to 50 percent more energy than solar panels could at the same price.
Aeromine Technologies designed a rooftop wind capture technology that takes up just a tenth of the roof space of solar, and operates completely silently. This technology comes at a time when Europe is scrambling to end its reliance on Russian gas, as the war in Ukraine has sent energy bills spiraling in line with the costs of wholesale natural gas. To solve this crisis, European countries have been turning towards accelerating their renewable energy rollout with wind and solar farms.
However, Aeromine noted that while rooftop green energy solutions, such as solar panels and legacy small wind turbines, can lower bills and reduce reliance on gas, they have certain drawbacks.
On their website, Aeromine noted that these solutions “are limited in how much energy they can produce, require large footprints, and have relatively short life cycles.”
Studies have found that solar panels typically last between 25-30 years, which is still significantly higher than the average life expectancy of a boiler, which lasts for 10-15 years.
