The company, Indesmedia (IDM) EOL, based in Cantabria (Northern Spain) is ready to introduce its new type of wind turbine with vertical axis horizontal blades in the market. The company says an important factor considered in designing this new type of wind turbine is to reduce the risk for bats and birds. They rotate at low speeds (under 10 rpm) and the towers are no more than 13 yards high. Other main objectives in developing the turbine are minimizing the visual impact and noise of the wind turbines, simplifying their manufacturing process and installation and finding new spaces where to take advantage from wind energy, such as urban spaces, ships and marine platforms.
