Indian Startup Founded by Two Brothers Develops Wind Turbine That Could Cost the Price of a Smartphone

Through the startup, Avant Garde Innovations, they developed a residential wind turbine that they hope will sell for around 50,000 rupees, about R$ 2,300.00, which is equivalent to a mid-range smartphone today.

Arun and Anoop George, leaders of the startup, designed the residential wind turbine with the size of a ceiling fan’s blades, which would ultimately cost less than a smartphone. According to the Indian newspaper The Times, the turbine can generate between 1 to 3 kilowatt-hours of electricity daily, enough to power a household.

Advantages and Precautions According to the Indian Startup

The pilot project of the wind turbine that costs the price of a smartphone was launched by the startup in January of this year at a church. The equipment weighs 72 kg and was designed to operate in various weather conditions and, according to the manufacturers, can generate energy 365 days a year.

The positioning of the wind turbine that may cost the price of a smartphone adapts to the direction of the airflow, the noise generated is about 10% of the noise produced by the wind itself, and the energy produced from the wind is renewable – an alternative to other energy sources, such as those produced from fossil fuels.

The startup, however, warns on its website that to assess the feasibility of generating wind energy, various factors need to be considered, ranging from air density and wind strength to temperature and soil conditions. The value of 5 kWh per day assumes a wind speed of 5.5 m/s.
