The Terrawatt Raptor

Maturity

The Terrawatt Raptor is an innovative wind energy generation and storage device operating in the 100-750 kW range. Key differentiators include a hybrid vertical axis turbine design with a curved guide which increases the output of the turbine; an integrated energy storage system; and a design suited to layer manufacturing which combines conventional and additive methods to reduce cost of production.

Benefits

The Terrawatt Raptor addresses these challenges by the cost of energy generation through a hybrid vertical axis turbine design increases the output of the turbine. The turbine blade itself is both a drag and lift turbine with an aerofoil cross section thus increasing its efficiency compared to drag generators.
