Eolic Aero: A Portable, Foldable Wind Generator
No power, no problem. The Eolic Aero, a portable wind powered generator, is currently a concept only, but I’d gladly erect one of these on my roof for the opportunity to run off the grid for what is hopefully the better part of the day – no word on potential power output.
It’s constructed of light weight materials, such as carbon fiber and aluminum, which should make it relatively portable, though Ecofriend seems to think 2 to 3 people will be needed to erect it to its max height.
Who knows if if the Aero will ever see the light (or wind) of day, but disaster ravaged countries, such as Haiti could use this now.
