The research results formed the basis of the new technology and of the new design of a megawatt-class industrial wind power plant (see one of the solutions in Fig. 1, press the button below):

Vortex-type air flow concentrator covered by a domed roof and equipped with lightning conductors, consists of identical wind directing elements (in the given version there are six of them) made of metal structures covered by sheets of glass-reinforced plastic and having an aerodynamic profile (for example, materials of blades of the modern wind turbines that have served their term can be used, that will solve a problem of their recycling);
Supporting structures, including the concrete or pile foundation and supports made of prestressed concrete, serve as the basis for the vortex concentrator and steel beams, which fix the shaft of the turbine rotor in the bearing units from longitudinal and lateral shifts. The height of the supports for the wind power plants of more than 100 kW of installed capacity should be at least 20 m (~20-30% of the total height) to ensure the removal of slower flows behind the wind turbine to prevent the occurrence of back pressure;
The turbine consisting of rods with blades at the ends and a hub with a control system (disk in the center), which is responsible for turning the rods to change the pitch angle, and for moving the rods -in and -out the hub (International application for invention PCT/IB2019/057055 from August 21, 2019 priority date July 21, 2019, under patent RU 2718594 C1 registered and published on April 08, 2020);
Generator room (the dome-shaped building in the base) including the building itself, the generator with the CVT (continuously variable transmission), electric equipment and controller with the operator`s control panel.

For a private use, instance for power supply of a country house, farm or electric vehicle charging stations, the wind power plant could be significantly simplified. The vortex air flow concentrator could act as a supporting structure. In the wind power plants of up to 15-20 meters height, the air flow vortex concentrator can be turned over so that the working zone and the turbine are on the top, and its wind directing elements serve as supports for the turbine. The vortex concentrator for itself could find its application also in other areas, for example, in a buildings ventilation system. In Fig. 2 you can see the assembly of the wind turbine for charging gadgets, and in Fig. 3 part of the semi-automatic blade control system.

The introduction of this technology will allow wind power to grow from a subsidized industry into a profitable component of the world`s electricity production. It will be possible to use previously not promising regions in terms of wind energy. Changing the main principle in the wind power from maximum generation per year to stable power generation in a wide range of wind speeds will reduce the need to accumulate excess electricity generation and simplify the coordination of generation with the power grid of the regions.
