Here’s a concept in small wind for readers to check out. A few points:
It’s not new. A few years ago, there was a nearly identical idea that came and went, when investors came to understand that this concept, as all the others, were dead in the water.
They have an “axial flux generator.” Really? Having we all seen “Back to the Future?” Making up technobabble like the “flux capacitor” gets laughs, but that’s about it.
The fact that climate change poses a huge threat doesn’t mean that every yo-yo idea in renewable energy makes sense.
There is a reason, based on physics, that vertical axis wind turbines are not competitive with their horizontal counterparts and do not exist in the enormous industry of wind energy.
The wind conditions on our roofs are impeded by trees and neighboring buildings. That’s the reason that wind farms are located in remote areas with incredible wind resources. No one would like to live in a place like Tehachapi, California with gale-force winds.
The spokesperson’s idea that he’s raising investor capital to engineer the product because “you to have the recipe before you bake the cookies” is catchy, but this is a recipe that clearly cannot exist.

China Barred Vestas Software, Ørsted Buys Chinese Monopiles
Vestas CEO Henrik Andersen says China barred Vestas from monitoring its own turbines. Plus Ørsted takes heat for Chinese monopiles, India’s blade design gap, and tents that beat weather delays.

Virtually all top-ranking retired military brass view Trump as shown at left. On top of that, Hegseth has publicly fired all current generals and admirals who are not loyal to Trump, as the entire world watched the purge.
Doesn’t this affect the way the psychopath’s command of our nation is ultimately determined?
Keep in mind that “removing Trump from office” and “stop talking about Trump” are two different events.
It’s quite possible that a Democrat-controlled congress could remove him from power within the coming months. But think about the damage he’s done to our nation and the path to repair it. Think about the war, the trade deals, the economic policies, our relationships with our allies, the racism, our erstwhile position as leader in world democracy, and the degradation in public health, education, and environmental responsibility.
We’ll be talking about Trump as long as an organized human civilization is functioning on this planet.
