The Airturb system consists of a vertical-axle wind turbine with a modified Savonius spiral shape and a base with four monocrystalline solar panels. The turbine has dimensions of 1.8 m x 1.14 m x 1.14 m and weighs 70 kg, and each solar panel has a power of 30 W. This allows the system to provide power up to 500 W.
The solar base consists of a structure made of galvanized steel and rubber. It has dimensions of 1.14 m x 1.14 m x 20 mm and weighs 35 kg. It can accommodate four 30W solar panels each. At the same time, other types of solar panels can be placed on the base.
A key element of the Airturb system is the DualVolt hybrid inverter with an output power of 500 W, which allows the system to use the energy produced by both wind turbine and solar panels. The device has dimensions of 540 mm x 430 mm x 139 mm and weighs 25 kg. It should be placed separately on the facility, with a maximum distance to the system of 25 meters.
Airturb CEO Serkan Kilić noted that the system was developed taking into account the load on the roof, which is 131 kg/m2. In addition, he stressed that the system can operate at temperatures from -25 C to 60 C, which allows it to be used in various climatic conditions.
The full package, including a solar base and a DuoVolt wind inverter, costs 4,235 euros ($4,626). According to the company, investing in such a system can pay off in 4-5 years due to energy savings.
In addition, the Airturb system can be used as a backup power source in case of accidents and unforeseen situations when conventional power supplies are turned off.
The Dutch startup Airturb is also actively working to improve its system to make it even more efficient and easy to use. The company plans to release a new version of the system, which will be equipped with smart technologies that allow you to manage its operation from anywhere in the world via the Internet.
