Abstract-Invelox is a deep rethinking of the current problems associated with harnessing the power of

the wind. today’s wind power systems have incrementally improved wind turbine performance, but the
gains have only come from building turbines with ever-larger blades, perched onever-taller towers,
and built at ever-increasing expense. to date, the cost of wind power still exceeds the cost of power
from coal and natural gas. InveLoX, with its cut-in wind speed as low as 2 mph, transforms wind
energy into a reliable, baseload power source cheaper than natural gas. Instead of snatching bits of
energy from the wind as it passes through the blades of a rotor, the wind is captured with a funnel and
directed through a tapering passageway that naturally accelerates its flow. this stream of kinetic energy
then drives a generator that is installed safely and economically at ground level. the wind flow from
multiple collection funnels is concentrated in such a way that the resulting power output rises almost
exponentially.

I. ECONOMICS OF WIND POWER GENERATION Even though the tax incentives and government
subsidies have helped to lower the cost of wind power generation, it is still more expensive than
conventional power generation, such as gas and coal. the cost reduction of wind power generation is
one of the most critical areas that InveLoX improves. Because the InveLoX system is shorter, smaller,
and has fewer moving parts than a traditional turbine, it can achieve savings of 16% to38% per
megawatt-hour (MWh) produced. an InveLoX installation will cost nearly 7% to 11% less to construct,
and 40% to 45% less for wind power plant operation and maintenance than traditional wind
farms.Sheerwind’s simulations and computer models indicate that the InveLoX technology can
produce three times more power than a traditional wind turbine. InveLoX makes wind power
generation at a cost of 2.8 to4.1¢. per kilowatt hour (kWh) which is extremely competitive when
compared to the generation costs of traditional wind and even natural gas.

II. REDUCTION IN COST OF WIND POWER GENERATION A. Key Benefits of Involex

Ground-breaking solutions to project development and planning constraintsthe reason wind project
developers have expresseda strong interest in InveLoX is simple: the technology not only provides
greater power output at reduced cost,it also brings a solution to all the planning and development
issues that have undermined the growth of the wind energy industry for the past twenty years.In the
past decade, we have seen residents around wind projects expressing ever increasing concerns over
the environmental and health impacts of wind farms on their communities.

project developers face strong public resis- tance in virtually all proposed wind farms, which causes the
dismissal of the great majority of their projects. this situation has not only slowed down the industry,
but it has also ledto higher development costs. InveLoX wind farms are environmentally friendly, and
will not face such resistance.In addition, InveLoX reduces the footprint of projects considerably,
minimizes aviation and military radar interferences, functions at lower cut in wind speeds, canbe
deployed closer to grid connections, and offers a greater level of reliability and availability than
traditional wind farms. as a result, InveLoX wind farms will not only be much easier to implement than
traditional wind farms,they will have access to sites where traditional wind farms cannot be installed.

III. WORKING PRINCIPLE

A. Low Cut-in Wind Speed

InveLoX can generate power at wind speeds as low as 2 mph, whereas traditional wind turbines only
start generating at 8.5 mph. InveLoX can therefore be used on very low wind speed sites. our
technology offers a dramatically wider geographical range of use anda higher level of availability.

B. REDUCED LAND USE

Thanks to its smaller size and its high performance, an InveLoX wind farm uses only a fraction of the
land area usually required for the operation of traditional wind farms. InveLoX is designed in such a
way that it is less influenced by the vortex and wake effects that are caused by the large turbine blades
rotation. these aerodynamic effects impose turbine spacing constraints on traditional wind farms, and
causes them to take up much more space. InveLoX doesn’t face the same challenges as it has no
rotating blades on the top the tower. on average, for a 100 MW project, InveLoX wind farms will use on
average 90% less land than traditional wind farms. on the other hand, while the traditional wind
turbines can

C. VISUAL IMPACT

InveLoX wind farms require much less land than traditional wind farms and use fewer towers, standing
half as high as traditional wind turbines. as a result, the visual impact of an InveLoX wind farm on the
landscape will be considerably reduced. InveLoX offers a notably superior aesthetic profile to
communities.noise Impact and Shadow Flickers traditional wind turbines produce aerodynamic noise by
the rotation of the blades, which can create annoyance and interference in the quality of life of
nearby residents. It is noted that the damaging frequency range of the traditional turbine is below the
hearing frequency ofhuman ear, i.e., below 20 HZ. Low frequency noises and vibrations are harder
to measure and noise experts still struggle to deal with these issues. Furthermore, the human organs,
such as heart, lungs and brain have resonance frequencies below 20 HZ, and thus the turbine noise
can create what is known as “Wind turbine Syndrome.” By eliminating the need for massive tower
mounted rotors, InveLoX significantly reduces the high energy and low frequency noise nuisance
created by wind farms and eliminates entirely the shadow flicker issue.

D. IMPACT ON BIRDS

Traditional wind farms represent a risk to birds due to collision with the rotating blades, interferences
with migrations, and reduction or loss of habitat. InveLoX, thanks to the absence of rotating blades and
its smaller land use, contributes to significantly reduce the negative impact on birds. aviation and
Military Radars traditional wind farms can cause electro-magnetic interferences on aviation and
military radars, and asa result cannot be installed in sites where such interference would occur.
InveLoX turbines do not interfere with aviation and military radars, and can therefore be installed in
areas inaccessible to traditional wind farms.

E. DISTANCE FROM GRID

Traditional wind farms can only be installed in areas that have class–3 wind, which is a mean wind
speed higher than 14 mph. these areas are often away from the electrical grid and main transmission
lines. therefore, connections need to be made between the remote areaof the wind power plants
and the regional transmission lines. the development of such connectivity is costly and time
consuming. InveLoX wind farms can be installed much closer to the point of connection, and the
connection works will be easier and cheaper to perform.

F. ICING

Traditional wind turbines, in cold climate areas, suffer from icing which results in performance
degradation or shutdowns. Because InveLoX turbines and blades are safely installed at or below
ground level, inside the venturi section of the tower, they will not be subjected to harsh temperature
variations and no icing will occur.

G. TURBINE RELIALITY

Because the InveLoX turbine and generator aresafely placed at ground level, reliability will increase
since they are not subjected to harsh environmental conditions. For example, bearings, shafts, blades,
and gears are not exposed to broad temperature changes, humidity, airborne debris, and excessive
winds. our enclosed turbine-genera- tor system will lead to reduced downtime, and result in more
effective maintenance programs.

IV. CONCLUSION Thus it may be a better solution for increasing efficiency in commercial renewable
power generation

applications it also has good architecture and can be installed ground level applications.
