Transportable Wind Turbines

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Portable Power Center Brings Electricity to Remote Areas

— October 23, 2012 — Eco
Wind turbines might be old news, but the Portable Power Center isn't. It is essentially a transportable wind turbine that generates power where needed. Instead of dumping power where electricity grids already exists, the Portable Power Center concentrates on more remote areas.

Developed by San Diego-based Uprise Energy, the Portable Power Center is designed to fit into a single shipping container. Able to be towed by a standard truck on unimproved roads, it can be set up in a couple of hours by a single person. Powerful and efficient, it boasts intelligent programming in order to constantly monitoring weather patterns and adjust itself to best capture energy from the wind. It is the most advanced wind turbine in the world.
Trend Themes
1. Transportable Wind Turbines - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing more compact and portable wind turbines to meet the demands of remote areas.
2. Power Generation in Remote Areas - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating innovative solutions to generate electricity in remote areas where traditional power grids are inaccessible.
3. Intelligent Wind Turbine Technology - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Advancing wind turbine technology with intelligent programming to maximize energy capture from wind patterns.
Industry Implications
1. Renewable Energy - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing renewable energy solutions, such as portable wind turbines, to reduce dependence on traditional power sources.
2. Logistics and Transportation - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Streamlining the transportation of portable wind turbines to remote areas with improved logistics and specialized transport methods.
3. Weather Monitoring and Analytics - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing advanced weather monitoring and analytics technologies to optimize the efficiency of wind turbines in capturing energy.
