generates energy and saves lives

The mysterious monolith began to produce energy and saves lives. It is located in some places in America. After the new energy coming from the south of the Earth saw the light of day, the territory of Spain attracted all the attention with this news. The use of renewable energy sources in the United States has increased significantly since the end of the 20th century, and among this type of clean energy, wind energy is the second most powerful in terms of electricity generation.

According to the U.S. Department of the Interior, there are over 70,800 wind turbines installed in our country. It is important to remember that wind energy is obtained from the force of the wind, also known as wind kinetic energy. It is used to generate electricity. It is considered renewable energy because wind is a renewable resource.

Its impact on the environment is very low compared to other energies, and it is also very efficient. In order to harness the wind and produce electricity, it is necessary to build wind farms to extract as much energy as possible. These farms are usually located in uninhabited areas to avoid affecting residents. However, they bring other problems related to life.

This energy is saving lives in our country: Experts are unsure about its efficiency

A study conducted last summer by experts in Spain found that “almost a million bats die every year” on wind farms. In fact, it is claimed that more and more species are affected, such as birds. The problem is that many of them collide with the blades of wind turbines. Faced with this problem, several wind energy companies are looking for solutions that will allow them to harness wind energy but do not cause as much damage to natural fauna.

Specifically, there is a Spanish company that creates wind turbine without blades, gears and shafts. It’s a real monolith and it’s called the Vortex Bladeless. Engineer David Yáñez, co-founder and CEO, gave some details about the device on COPE’s program, “Lo que viene.”

He explained that this new wind turbine will have some features similar to conventional windmills, such as “the vertical part, what the tower will be,” and also its white color. However, because it has no blades to collect air, it oscillates, “what it does is resonate with the wind.”

The idea came to me in 2002, when the engineer was still in college. Currently, Vortex Bladeless devices have not yet reached the level of industry, because “they have to be aimed at the urban, residential environment and try to find a solution to be able to collect the energy of the wind that crosses our roofs“.

This mysterious monolith generates energy: it could save many lives that are lost today

According to the company’s website, compared to a traditional turbine of similar height, it has no shafts or gears, does not need brakes, always remains oriented and is simple to manufacture. On the other hand, its foundation is similar, has a lower wind range, requires less space to operate and has a longer service life.

Vortex devices are simple in concept and easy to manufacture, install and operate. They have a fixed base and a freely oscillating cylindrical mast “perpendicular to the wind direction, held together by a carbon rod,” as they claim on their website. The internal parts of the device do not collide with each other. Instead, they interact, generating electricity.

Its operation is very similar to that of a traditional alternator. It interacts with coils and magnetic fields to generate electricity through electromagnetic induction, but does not require rotation around an axis. The magnets also act as a “tuning system,” changing the seemingly constant elasticity of the mast and expanding the range of wind speeds at which vibrations are generated.

In conclusion, this mysterious monolith is still in the development phase, but it is already starting to show results energy. It could be in America and could be the beginning of a new era for wind energy.
