You’d think these days that everyone would be into wind power energy generation, but that’s not true, in fact, there are now huge opposition groups. They have many complaints about these generating systems. Everything from the CO2 used in the concrete for the base of the 200 foot tower wind generators, to the ultrasound they create effecting human health, but that’s just the start.
Not long ago, a business manager from a small startup group contacted me and wondered after reading an article I’d written if I might give him some advice on the challenges facing their concept of a donut shaped tethered mini-blimp with a wind turbine inside. Firstly, I recalled an anti-wind-turbine group who sent out weekly emails, would they stand in the way of such a new innovation?
Thus, I sent the gentleman back a note with his potentially most dire critic of the concept, the quintessential anti-Wind Turbine guy, along with his email address in case they might explain what they were doing and head things off at the pass. And I explained that he discusses things like wind turbines coming apart during operation and vibrating themselves to death in a fiery mess – yours solves that problem.
He discusses bird strikes, and bats losing lift in the low-pressure area – even though this new innovation type unit won’t have that problem as it could be flown a bit higher than those normal flight paths. The critic also discusses problems with ultra-sound often associated with fans, and wind turbine blades and their effect on human health, other species etc. It seems to me you could solve those problems too. The challenge of “eyesore” could be a problem, or people calling in your device as a UFO? That’s funny.
You see, just because you are passionate about alternative energy exploits, doesn’t mean there is not someone else out there, who is Anti-Global Warming or stands against your new innovations or products. Please consider all this.
