Torque - Wind Turbine
The Torque Wind Turbine's dynamic blade design optimizes the conversion of wind energy while moving with the wind and minimizes the loss of energy while moving against the wind. Unique in the world and developed for decentral electricity production near the consumer.
Revolutionary Design Build On Proven Technology
The design is absolutely unique and patented and in combination with technologies and materials from the automotive and aviation industry a base to become successful.
The result is a small wind turbine that is self-starting at low wind speeds and thus needs no starting power and can even convert wind energy during a storm thanks to the unique and inventive control mechanism.
After testing an uncounted numbers of hours the final shape design of the Torque Wind turbine parts were created and the control mechanism finetuned. The result is a so called vertical wind turbine with a wing that has open blades going with the wind to convert wind energy and the wing having closed blades moving against the wind to reduce the loss in this movement to a minimum.
The Winners
When 3 Beaufort and more wind is available on the intended location and there is enough open space around the Torque Wind Turbine it will work well.
The winners with a good wind situation for the Torque Wind Turbine are:
- Agriculture farms with space on their property
- Camping places on the country side and at the sea side
- Cattle farms with milk robots using electricity
- Electric vehicles Charge Stations
- Horticulture glasshouses
- Hotels and restaurants on the country side and at the sea side
- Industry zones - streets and parking places
- Islands with open space alongside streets
- Livestock farms
- Mobile network operators
- Private home on the countryside and at the sea side
- River side harbour light poles on the logistic areas
- Sea side harbour light poles alongside the roads and on the logistic areas
- Shopping malls parking place
- Sport fields
- Street light and electric cable poles alongside highways and country roads
Torque Wind Turbine Features and Advantages
- Good payback time from ~3 Beaufort and higher average wind speed
- Fits the landscape preventing sight pollution
- Relatively low height (between 15 and 30 meters depending on wind situation and customers wish)
- Easy to assemble at the location using local craftmanship
- Relatively low installation costs
- Local cable infrastructure can be used
- Self-starting at low wind speed (high Torque)
- Reacts instantly on wind direction changes (advantage vertical wind turbine)
- Reacts instantly on wind speed changes (advantage vertical wind turbine)
- Is nearly soundless at all wind speeds (tip speed on average 2 times the wind speed)
- Very good output (Cp 0,4)
- Many working hours
- Continues electricity production during storm
- Output adopted to consumption, grid capacity, battery charge level, generator capacity, etc.
- Lifetime expected of 20 years
- Low maintenance
- KWh price between 5 to 10 Eurocent over a 20 year period
Problems Solved
Autumn and winter wind. In autumn and winter wind energy is even more frequent than in Summertime, which means in special during the dark and cold months in the northern and southern part of the world the Torque Wind Turbine is the perfect solution for the high energy consuming heating season.

(1) The height depends on the buyers choice as a minimum of at least 10 meters is advised.
(2) With 18 km/h averages wind speed per anno at 10 meter height
(3) Catalogue price excluded: VAT, transport cost, permission cost, installation cost, service cost, etc.
How to Achieve a Good Return On Investment
Use electricity for own consumption as much possible. Electricity directly used when the Torque is producing electricity needs no additional investments. Par example:
- Electric vehicle can be charged to fill up the battery.
- Electricity can be stored in a hot water boiler for heating tap water and central heating.
- Use the electricity for cooling via the air conditioning systems, refrigerator or ice makers.
How additionally some money can be earned:
- Sell electricity to others
- Sell the data from the weather station
- Rent out tower spots to mobile telecom providers who have a blind spot in the area
- Rent out tower spots to organization that measure/ collect environmental data
