Wind Energy On-the-Go?

November 2, 2012

The portable turbine can generate electricity at a lower cost than traditional utility companies.

We know that wind energy could power the world 100 times over, but constructing that much wind turbines isn't very feasible. But would it help if wind turbines were portable?

Uprise Energy has developed a wind turbine that is portable and easier to maintain. The Uprise Portable Power Center features a large wind turbine that can be moved. The turbine folds itself back into a 40' shipping container, and can be driven to its destination with a tow truck.

The electricity generation capacity of the portable turbine is 50 kW, and can generate electricity at a lower cost than traditional utility companies.

Watch how the turbine could work with this video.
