4 FAQs about Ridge-blade-wind-turbine
What is a Ridgeblade wind turbine?
The Ridgeblade wind turbine is a long-bladed turbine designed to fit along the ridge of a roof, where wind currents are strongest. It has the wind-capturing potential of a medium-sized turbine, packing a powerful punch. Instead of creating a free-standing turbine that sticks out for all the neighbors to see, The Power Collective designed this turbine to blend in.
Can Ridgeblade® be used in wind tunnels?
TheRidgeBlade® has been successfully tested in over 100mph winds in both wind tunnel and installed locations. The low-profile, self-regulating and “planning-friendly” design features make RidgeBlade® ideal for commercial and urban areas that often produce turbulent winds.
What is a RB1 residential wind turbine?
The RB1 Residential is a compact, lightweight and quiet wind turbine ideal for residential applications. The RB2 Commercial is a modular, high output and low profile wind turbine ideal for commercial applications. The Hybrid Solar Units have all of the benefits of the base RidgeBlade® turbines, with the added output of solar PV systems.
What is Ridgeblade®?
The RidgeBlade® adopts an entirely new design philosophy and addresses many of the drawbacks associated with Solar PV and traditional wind turbines. Using the existing surface area of a pitched roof, the RidgeBlade® collects and focuses the prevailing wind harnessing the Aeolian wind focus effect.
