From France
Maturity stage TRL 6 - Prototype testing 1:1 in lab

It is able to exploit the wind that goes up along the facades of buildings to recover a maximum of energy. Thanks to its modular characteristic, this solution enables the multiplication of production sources to obtain significant electrical production, quite comparable to that of photovoltaic solar panels. A WindBox can produce as much electrical energy as ten square metres of solar panels and can complement them. Quick and easy to install, it is designed and fixed to limit its noise disturbances and vibrations.

The Environmental Benefits

  • •A global impact (with LCA) of 26g CO2ep per kWh instead of the 55g emitted with solar panels
  • •A reduction of global environmental impact of more than 70% compared to current energy production

The Financial Benefits

  • •The payback time is 14 years
