Established principles in a novel useage
Aeromine is designed to sit on the edge of a building facing the predominant wind direction.
The combined wind acceleration provided by the building and the vertical airfoils creates a vacuum behind the propeller.
Air is then sucked past the propeller and power is generated.
Buildings accelerate wind as it is pushed up over the edge.
The aerodynamic design accelerates the wind further, creating a low-pressure zone behind the central column.
The low-pressure pulls air through the bottom of the unit, past the propeller. It is this secondary internal flow stream that generates the power.
Renewable wind energy is site specific
Aeromine has developed proprietary tools that use established wind resource data to forecast Aeromine energy production on a site specific basis.
These site assessments are used to evaluate a regional or global portfolio of buildings as well as individual sites prior to installation.
-
Aeromine complements solar as wind energy is often produced at different time of day/year than solar
-
Wind is a highly effective renewable energy source resulting in high energy output per sqm rooftop
-
Aeromine’s Innovative simplicity, results in low risk, easy maintenance and inherent safety
Durable design - 20 years expected lifetime
No visible moving parts, no noise or vibration, and a minimal impact on the surrounding environment and wildlife.
Made from low grade, highly durable, and generally recyclable materials, and no environmentally problematic materials such as silicon or rare earth minerals.
Industrial Rotor design is simple, safe and requires very little attention. Permanent magnet generator, hermetically sealed with passive cooling and lubricated for life.
No inverter. The AC output of each Aeromine generator is easily integrated with your building and other energy assets.
24/7
performance measurements
Aeromine systems can be remotely monitored and controlled, enabling individual units or full system operational changes as well as seamless integration with other building systems.
Cloud services use a digital twin and regional weather data to constantly check the installation’s reliability and performance.
Reports and alerts can be configured to provide ongoing performance management.
