Agile Wind Power Secures Swiss Climate Foundation Funding for Vertical Sky® Demonstrator

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Brütten, Switzerland – [July 5, 2024] – In a significant development for the future of clean energy, Agile Wind Power has secured funding from the Swiss Climate Foundation for the construction of a new type of vertical axis wind turbine demonstrator project: the Vertical Sky® A6.

This funding represents a major endorsement for Agile Wind Power's innovative vertical axis wind turbine technology. The Vertical Sky® A6 demonstrator will be a scaled-down research and testing facility, replicating the functionality and components of future large-scale turbines. Its construction in Brütten, near Winterthur, is expected to begin as early as September 2024.

Why The Vertical Sky® Wind Turbine Project is So Important

The Vertical Sky® project holds great promise for the future of wind energy. Here are three key reasons why this funding is a significant milestone:

• High-Quality Standards Recognized: The Swiss Climate Foundation's support is a testament to the high quality and innovative nature of Agile Wind Power's technology. Their funding process is highly selective, focusing on projects that demonstrably contribute to climate protection.
• Vertical Sky® Demonstrator Paves the Way for Commercial Deployment: The demonstrator will serve as a crucial step in the development of the first commercial Vertical Sky® turbine, a 1-MW machine designed for large-scale electricity generation.
• Promoting Public Acceptance for Wind Energy: Public perception has often been a hurdle for wind energy projects. The demonstrator will showcase the advantages of Vertical Sky® turbines, including their quiet operation, slow rotation speed, improved landscape integration, and reduced risk to wildlife. This transparency is key to fostering public acceptance and wider adoption of wind energy.

The Agile Vertical Sky® A6 - The Future of Electric Production

The Vertical Sky® project aligns perfectly with the growing trend of local electricity production. Wind energy provides a clean and cost-effective solution for businesses and communities to generate their own electricity, reducing reliance on the grid and promoting energy independence. This decentralized approach also benefits the overall energy system by minimizing strain on transmission lines and enhancing overall resilience.

The Swiss Climate Foundation Studies Vertical Axis Wind Turbines

The Swiss Climate Foundation's support brings Agile Wind Power a significant step closer to realizing its vision of a sustainable energy future powered by innovative vertical axis wind turbines. The Vertical Sky® project has the potential to revolutionize wind energy by making it cleaner, quieter, and more widely accepted.

Stay tuned for updates on the development of the Vertical Sky® A6 project!
