Wind-Sail is seeking $1.5-2M in funding to launch their commercial vertical axis wind turbine platform. Their 3kW turbine system captures wind from all directions, produces 190 watts per square meter, and operates quietly at 40 decibels. It has a patented design that aims to be more efficient in light to medium winds than competitors. Their plan is to deploy initial units at high-profile sites to establish credibility before expanding sales globally through strategic partnerships.

20. Capturing Urban Opportunities Wind-Sail Benefit Requirement No nameplate cheating; better power yearly deliver (annualized kw/hrs) Deliver power at lower startup speeds and higher throughput across curve Eye of the beholder; Growth in big wind assists Aesthetics No blade clearance, collapsible blades Unique applications (cell towers, collapsible / portable) Wind-swept area scales in (height x width), not ( ¼ • π • d² ) Space constraints (watts/meter) Omni-directional Handle gusty, directional wind (aka “dirty” wind) One bearing set, center balanced Must be durable and low maintenance Spins 4x slower than HAWT competition Must be safe and quiet

Key Points: Wind is tremendous successful Cost effective $.watt Expliding globally As wind energy expands, the resistance to expanding big wind also expands. places Siting is a problem Cape cod No wind system above 50kW But we are there to capture the market that will never go that way There are huge markets for small and medium sized wind turbines for cities, or remote locations, marine, tourist areas Huge market where these towers and blades can never be accepted or used.
