Description:
The Maglev Wind Turbine for commercial energy production is designed to generate electricity from wind power with a new standard of efficiency.
Magnetic Levitation or Maglev is the most efficient means of transferring kinetic energy from wind power to generate electricity. The wind turbine floats on a magnetic cushion with the aid of a linear synchronous motor (LSM). This technology eliminates all friction and delivers maximum wind energy directly to the LSM. Since the Maglev wind turbine blades capture all the wind, it is possible to generate electricity for less than one cent per kilowat hour.
Today MAGLEV trains operate in Germany, China and Japan. MAGLEV trains currently hold many land speed records and are most noted for energy efficiency, on time performance and low maintenanc
