Description

It is considered that this sector has a great economic potential, given the strategies at national and EU levels encouraging green energy production and services. There are no producers in RO for vertical wind turbines and there is a need for using renewable energy sources adapted to national conditions. There is also little awareness among citizens on the multiple economic benefits of the verticalwind turbines. The project targets a niche market sector, the one of vertical wind turbines, in order to produce electricity for small or medium consumers. We'll design and execute a new product (100% made within ROLIX), adapted to the specific RO wind conditions, initially as an industrial model, and afterwards entering mass production and being marketed. Project activities involve: research and awareness, purchasing equipment, producing and testing the industrial model (4 turbines). The final output: a vertical wind turbine (comprehensive system) operational in the windy conditions of RO (where wind speed is below 7 m/s for more than 60% of the territory), adapted to urban/rural areas. Citizens at all levels in Romania are expected to benefit from the project.
