6 FAQs about [Container wind turbine]

Can wind energy decarbonise the container shipping industry?

SideWind aims to demonstrate the potential of wind energy in decarbonising the container shipping industry. SideWind brings a new concept based on a plug&play, recyclable, practical and cost-effective vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT), horizontally arranged, inside a wall-free container to harness the wind energy flowing over cargo ships.

How does a wind turbine work?

Combining wind and solar improves generation through all seasons. The wind turbine addresses solar shortfalls at night, overcast days, or for properties shadowed by winter sun. Electricity backup from diesel generator or grid electricity is autonomously controlled.

What is Ryse energy small wind turbine?

Ryse Energy small wind turbine units are integrated into the roof structure of the SRU containerized solution. The integration of small wind is cost-effective and allows for maximum energy generation outside of the solar cycle, which is often a limiting factor during deployment of traditional decentralized off-grid solutions.

Does thinAir provide wind & solar power in Dunedin?
