A remarkable wind turbine design that may soon revolutionize the way we use wind to harness energy has won an international innovation award. The device represents a spinning 25cm sphere with geometric vents at different angles that allow for wind to be captured from many different directions. This could potentially change the way we use wind to generate power, especially in cities where the wind blows chaotically from all directions.
This multi-directional wind turbine could change the wind power game
