The present invention provides a system of wind turbines connected to a single unit electric generator to produce electrical power whereby the wind turbine blades rotate coaxially with a main rotor shaft instead of perpendicular to the shaft axis. In this respect, the wind turbine rotor can face the wind from any direction and does not need to be pointed into the wind to be effective, thus, eliminating the need for a yaw system. Moreover, translation of mechanical to torque of the main rotor drive allows the drive components such as the gearbox and generator to be placed near the ground of each wind turbine improving accessibility for maintenance.

Disclosed is a system for deploying, stationing, and translocating buoyant wind- and wave-energy converters and/or other buoyant structures or devices, as well as farms of same. Also disclosed is a novel apparatus and/or machine comprising a farm of buoyant wave energy converters deployed by said method and/or configured to be deployed by said method.

The present invention relates to an apparatus for generating power to operate telecommunication network system (401) comprises of a vertical wind turbine, a generator (302) and a Faraday cage (106). The vertical wind turbine includes a hub, a hollow rotating vertical shaft (105), a rotor, plurality of blades (107), and a brake mechanism. The hub attached on to the shaft to which the blades (107) are attached. The hollow rotating vertical shaft (105) is connected to the hub that in turn connected to the generator (302). The shaft (105) is mounted on top of the telecommunication network system (401). The shaft (105) is provided to transfer the rotation of blades (107) due to wind energy to the generator (302) and thereby to convert the wind energy to electrical energy. The Faraday cage (106) is wrapped around the generator (302) to avoid electromagnetic interference and lightning.

Disclosed is a novel method, process, and system (hereinafter method or process) for deploying, stationing, and translocating buoyant wind- and wave-energy converters and/or other buoyant structures or devices, as well as farms of same. Also disclosed is a novel apparatus and/or machine comprising a farm of buoyant wave energy converters deployed by said method and/or configured to be deployed by said method.

A vertical-axis wind rotor configured by concave-convex type airfoil profiles in the form of vertical helical protrusions, tilted towards counter-rotation and twisted around, the chord decreasing, where both ends are finished in the form of sharklets rotated towards the upper surface so as to eliminate the vortex, and distributed in a circular pattern around the rotation shaft thereof. The angular arrangement of the chord of the section of the profile with a spoke with respect to the shaft of the rotor is particular for making the profile work under lift conditions before reaching the normal under drag forces and complementing them, eliminating jerking, with the direction of rotation being indicated by the Coriolis effect and determining the radial distribution, the radius, the chord, the profile, and the number of them, which confers to the rotor the maximum terminal velocity at which it slows down, being maintained by the Magnus effect.

A turbine with flow diverter comprises a support frame adapted to be anchored to a fixed or movable structure, an impeller rotatably mounted about a rotation axis to the support frame and having a front inlet section for receiving the flow and adapted to move continuously upon the rotation produced by the flow between a pushing position and an advancing position in correspondence of the front section, a main flow diverter adapted to be anchored to the support frame and having a peripheral wall adapted to at least partially blind the front section with respect to the flow auxiliary diverter extending from a first section facing one or more blades in the advancing position to a second section facing one or more blades in pushing position. The auxiliary diverter comprises curvilinear conduits in reciprocal side by side position along a radial direction.

A wind turbine includes twin cross-flow turbines connected to a generator. The generator includes a shaft configured to be rotated when the turbines rotate. The wind turbine includes a first turbine rotatably movable around a first axis of rotation and including several blades distributed around the first axis of rotation. A second turbine is rotatably movable around a second axis of rotation and includes several blades distributed around the second axis of rotation. The first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are symmetrical to each other relative to a vertical axis. The first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are inclined relative to the vertical axis at an angle of inclination of between 25? and 50?.
