TRL-4
Market and economic attractiveness
- Simplicity and reliability
- Simplified equipment certification scheme
- High energy efficiency due to the use of technology of direct conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy
- Low cost
The main advantages (strengths) of the development
- The task of obtaining thermal energy directly from the wind generator , without intermediate conversion of electrical energy into thermal energy, is quite relevant and has advantages
- Existing systems that use wind energy ensure the supply of electrical energy to the network from an electric generator. To obtain thermal energy, water heaters are connected to the electrical network.
