Genius Solar Panel from Waste Operates without Sunlight!
👉🏼 czcams.com/video/BoIh0ZIg3ac/video.html
It's so easy to blame climate change, why the weather is different, the climate never the same every year. Have you ever thought the sun might have something to do with it.
@@rodneyquick2883 Simply repeating right-wing infotainment propaganda bullshit like a man sized parrot. Have you ever thought of that?
@@rodneyquick2883 Your "argument" doesn't make sense. First you insinuate something about blaming climate change, then you insinuate climate change is because of the sun? It's easier to just ignore climate change or blame it on something you have no control of, that way you don't need to do anything.
Pin the comment below by guy who works for ridgeblade...cost is way less
Hi everyone, my name is Chris and I’m Technical Manager for RidgeBlade (the guy in the SunSynk video). I just wanted to clear up some points this video gets completely wrong.
Covid-19 has seriously delayed the product launch and we have relocated the business to the UK. We are in the final stages of testing before an initial release in the UK/Ireland. Most importantly, please ignore the reported €53,000 price tag. This is completely false and I can confirm that information has not come from our company. The RidgeBlade it’s self is only available as a 5 rotor system and it will be a fraction of that price. Our first launch will be the RB2 for commercial/farming applications and we will follow up with the RB1 residential system in a years time. As you can imagine, our team is inundated with emails everyday day so we do apologise on the lack of communication but rest assured we are working flat out on product testing.
Thank you for this update. It matters. Clarifying the noise seems to be everyone's primary concern. My one question deals with how this affects wildlife and birds.
what is the fraction?--approx--the price is extremely important!
This comments needs top billing. Get this thing distributed better!
I wish you all the best for your business. Hopefully you can make it affordable for majority of people and not only for the rich.
@@AndreFavron good point.. any fences at the inlet so that birds stay safe?
I had this idea years ago. Built mine with Squirrel cages, even incorporated the high and low pressure sides. mine worked like an overshot water wheel.
Care to share your build? 😁 We have only solar right now, and it's really terrible through winter, but we have an endless supply of wind.
How'd you get the squirrels to stay inside and constantly run? Did you have to capture new squirrels all the time and replace the dead ones or use the dead squirrels as motivation for new squirrels to keep running?
Many of us have thought of it.
Noise is the factor that rules out wind power for our homestead. We love our peace and quiet.
well you can apply brakes on it or close the intake for when you don't want noise, IMHO you don't need that much power input if the house is well-insulated, have adequate lighting from sun, uses LEDs, etc.
Clearly you do not care about climate change or the myriad ways that it disproportionately affects WOMEN
True but when it's windy it's kinda noisy already. Hopefully some systems will be quiet
This noise can affect women in disproportionate ways
Noise from blades can be counteracted by adjusting blade angles , Get an education please ,. stop posting your ignorance and stupidity for all to see.
Born in the Ignorant USA i bet.
I love how those 'new' wind turbine design videos never ever mention the amount of noise the turbine makes. I have a simple extractor fan in the attic that turns on above a certain temp and the hum can be heard throughout the house, let alone outside. And this is arguably a low noise fan.
sounds like you have a problem with your extractor fan
@@robertrichard2322 Balance, plus rubber isolators keep vibration from being coupled to the house.
liam f1 wind turbine by archimedes is said to be silent and only cost $9000 usd for two of them for all the energy needed for an entire average family house
4:35 The answer.
pretty sure that type of fan and these turbines are completely different, plus attic fans are actually in the attic and not outside of the attic...
This actually looks like a blower in reverse, pretty sure this concept can be easily duplicated, no magic here! Probably easier to make than a fan blade on a 3d printer! I might give it a shot when time allows! If this actually performs as stated (which is almost never the case for these kind of things), this could really be a cheap solution for extracting wind power for anyone with some building skills. Looking at cost, these guys definitely have some healthy margins on that contraption!
Robert Murray Smith channel may have all the answers you seek 🤔
I REALLY DONT THINK THIS IS A NEW TECHNOLOGY ……..I THINK ITS MORE NOICE AND MORE MONEY FOR SOMEONE…….. FLORIDA HOMES COULD USE A LOW NOICE ALTERNATIVE TO THEIR SOLAR PANELS THAT IS A 100 DIFFENT NEED FOR A COMPLETE BACK UP…..
My thoughts exactly: nothing but a squirrel cage blower fan in reverse driving a generator(s) instead of being driven by a motor. As you said, with some shade tree engineering and a good car alternator or two, one can build one of those pretty quickly. I already have one wind generator made from a junkyard alternator and PVC pipe blades. I have a 3 and 5-blade setup I can swap depending on available wind speeds.
Well don't bother because it's a piece of garbage and it will not produce any real levels of energy.
@@user-ke9yk5qp3uOnly if the wind never blows...
A price tag of $53,000 really is too high for most people. You can generate the same amount of electricity with 6 archimedes style turbines for around 2/3 that price. The only advantage I see for such a system is that the top of it could become housing for archimedes turbines if your roof isn't big enough given wind speeds for just one system OR if your area doesn't allow wind turbines at all and you are trying to hide them.
A system that's difficult to buy is also going to be difficult to maintain. I attended classes at a technical school with had a giant wind turbine that was mechanically turned off because the company behind it went out of business and therefore it could not be maintained. Eagles then built a roost on top so the school couldn't legally repair it anyway. It's been standing there for years unable to generate any power at all. Therefore whatever you buy you need to make sure that if can be maintained by 3rd parties in the event that they go out of business.
Thank you for contacting those companies. I'd been following the Ridgeblade for ages but couldn't ever find pricing information on it. It's sad that it's currently so pricey and proprietary... I did a design that incorporated that, for a house project... :/
Glad to help!
Based on some other comments, it doesn't appear that the channel contacted the company at all, just throwing out some very misleading information.
I've got the wind it always blows mostly from the south west sometimes north east. Ill make my own turnbine. Ill position the structure to suit. I live off grid with 2 solar power systems that I built thanks for the idea
Im proud to say as a millwright who has build many fin fans and gas/steam turbines that utilize this same premise to operate...i can build one at 1% of cost. These people are crazy. We were already thinking of water turbines, wind, solar and thermal energy for our future off grid home. We'll definitely be building our own. Especially since we can get the used products free from work.
I had this idea 15 years ago when I built and installed my solar system on my roof. I always wondered why conventional wind turbines didn't take advantage of the slope of the roof to funnel the wind into the turbine. Your roof is like a big sail, forcing wind up and over its peak. Guess I should have capitalized on the idea before someone else did huh?
Still can
@@kccasperisme Ehh.....I'm old now lol.
The system might look nice and be more silent than "conventional" wind power systems. But when you compare it to the most common design (3 blades propeller), I see several glaring disadvantages:
1. Installed on the roof means close to the ground, which means lower wind speed.
2. Can only fully harvest the wind coming from a single direction (not even from both sides of the roof, as the system isn't symmetrical). Propeller systems turn with the wind and thus operate at max efficiency for every wind direction.
3. Only _one_ blade is aligned perfectly with the air flow at any given time. Thus it makes less efficient use of its collection area as a propeller system would (where the blades have always the same, perfect alignment).
I think this system is only interesting for niche markes, e.g. if the layout of the property doesn't allow to just put up a 10m pole with a conventional propeller (which should be much cheaper for the same energy output).
@@nexus169 No,you will have terrible gas mileage suddenly from all the drag it causes. There is no free ride.
If you are facing the prevailing wind (like my parents house which looks over the sea at the prevailing wind as well as at sea breeze) then it doesn’t really matter - almost all the wind comes from there.
The advantage comes from the air being pushed up the hill and then up the roof itself, giving a substantially larger effective area of wind.
@@JohnR31415 I came to say just that have a house facing the sea in North West Scotland, it would be perfect... Apart from the price. That make me suspect the technology and mistrust the business. This is being marketed as some expensive and exclusive gimmick. It needs to be mass produced and mass marketed with a corresponding drop in price.
To harvest the wind from any direction, you could put your house on a turntable with a big tail to keep it pointing into the wind.
@@bertsbases LOL!!! Sounds perfect!!!
It’s annoying that the one company making these is apparently a mess business-wise (excessive prices, weak distribution), but conceptually it is sound. The idea of taking advantage of roof pitch for wind speed acceleration is a good one, and installation should be straightforward on countless buildings. And mechanically, they’re not exactly rocket science! With production at scale, there’s no reason this design shouldn’t be cheap to manufacture and cheap to install - maybe cheap enough to be competitive with battery backup for solar. If it can offset the cost of storage (or relying on grid power), it could do very well financially. It would be really nice in a hybrid system with solar panels.
Down here in FL pulling the heat out of the addict added bonus
Absolutely brilliant system ruined by cost. Cheers nice one.
love these videos👌 learning more video by video. Thanks mate
Appreciate it mate
What if wind changes direction and comes from side?
This system likely requires a specialized roof truss design which is why they need to have an Engineering firm design the roof for the considerable added loading. Still, I like this. I’d take a hybrid wind solar system for redundancy and added energy capacity.
I'm glad that you got the price, saved me the time.
bit steep price wise for a few rooftop rotational turbines but a great invention non-the-less. every little improving design works towards helping alleviate the hurt this planet has bore the weight of through the strivings of humankind. thank you.
A Double Helix Wind Turbine does the same thing. In fact, a Tech show I saw in 2007, had a Rooftop system very similar to this, and, they CANNOT over spin, regardless of Wind Speed. In the Netherlands, a small 2' version called Turbies, became very popular. The problem is NOT the Technology, it is that too many people make money off Oil and the status quo.
"To many, is power, make money off oil" too true. There will always be oil burners (internal combustion engines) because corporate governance (what used to be elected government) mandates this. There are dozens of free energy systems that have been removed from 'view' by the corporately controlled media and their government lap-dogs. Implosion technology & not explosion technology is a simple path towards are fairer future. It just lacks the political will of the masses and the layers of corrupt corporate governance protecting the profits of those that pays for corrupt bureaucrats & politicians.
Basically a squirrel cage just like a swamp cooler turbine squirrel cage. Horizontal also enables bearings on both support sides, as well as you can use two generators or alternators producing possibly twice the voltage current. But it all depends on wind turning ability, and the torque of generators/alternators, for the power current output.
I’d love to get my hands on some of these - shame they’re not widely available
Hell you can make an even simpler one.o did it when I was very young. I got the idea from a kite in the 1960s. it is on the blades where their legal patent would be
Love the concept, and my house would be ideal for this, being on a ridge in the middle of fields, BUT far too expensive to install, too many years to pay off!
Agree. I wonder why these are so expensive. Cost for materials and manufacturing can’t be over $1,000 per unit. They’re marking up the cost dramatically. This should be $15-20,000 for 7 units installed.
Amazing
I can’t wait until this tech becomes main stream
Its efficient and genius that NOT ONE home has one!
$53,000 are you putting one on?
$53000 ?!? My total yearly utility costs are $1200. “Renewables “ are economically , reliability, maintain- ability simply a pipe dream.
I don’t think most people live in a cabin tho 😂
Lol
Your crazy my home energy would be that a month….
Lol, solar gets cheaper more efficient and longer lasting every day. As this vid suggests there's possibilities for wind too. About the only thing your pessimism may be justified about is current and near future battery tech. That's it.
@@johnassal5838
I'm 43.
I've been naive like you.
The solutions are almost always worse.
How are solar panels recycled? Not really.
Turbine blades?
Not really.
Do wind turbines kill insects and birds whilst 'experts' worry about loss of diversity?
Yep.
So Ridgeblade is the "Apple Computers" of the wind energy world. High price tag, extremely limited distributors and (currently) very low production rate. There's three strikes right there, I'll add a 4th strike since they're still playing Little League. This system is only useful if your prevailing (75% of the time or more) winds come from ONE DIRECTION.
a must have for every home on earth
I think about all of the possible commercial or governmental onshore horizontal blade wind farms. I think of all those massive beachfront hotels.. build them as wind traps.
That‘s just one great Idea how to leverage this kind of new tech! 🔥
I thought of this thing 29 years ago. My vertical one is far better than other people's too. But I've always been poor disabled and even homeless off and on. I'm going to build this one later this summer cause I need it for winter. I use solar panel now in summer
I know that problem only too well!
Really ingenious, however wind direction would have a major factor in determining performance and efficiency.
Especially since most urban homes have trees and/or other buildings to the left and to the right meaning wind isn't likely to blow as fast in that direction. Then again, if you had the money to put down, you could use this and then put an archimedes style turbine on top of the ridge to catch wind from other directions as well and you'd still have room for solar panels.
The problem with any of these systems is the cost.
I have a new well insulated 1650 sf home with a heated pole barn in Chicago. I spend $1000 per year for electric and $1000 for gas. (Yes, I am a cheapskate). A $50,000 system would take 25 years just to break even and that assumes that I convert to all electric heat (another cost)
What’s the maintenance cost vs solar. Are they rebuildable. Bearings replaceable, blades/squirrel cage? What’s the cost of parts. What’s the warranty period? Spin both ways?
I was just thinking about how it takes away the vacuum from exit side by joining the air flow back together, can it make power from both sides of the roof flow?
It reminds me of a modified a evaporative cooler into a wind generator
Wondered when this “new” idea would appear again. About every 12 months some post a video on the. Biggest issue I see for my area, prevailing wind goes from west to east. With a roof align for southern exposure for windows and solar panels,, these things are facing the wrong way.
i actually thought about this exact design 20 years ago, logically it's the most efficient design for capturing wind power, the downside is the designs dependency on specific wind direction, you can't exactly spin your house to meet varying wind directions............
Very interested in installing this on my home.
Were do you stack the exter engery
So is it a two way directional system? Normally the wind in my area is from the west but many times it is reversed. There is 8 feet between the gable ends of my house and the house of my neighbour, this causes a vortex thus increasing wind flow. I always wondered if a wind turbine could be placed between the houses to house two wind turbines.
Just make sure it's available in the market.
It's time to make awesome videos
If a squirrel cage on a microwave, ducted to vent to the outside, very small and using very little electricity, can clean out a whole kitchen of smoke and odors, and a whole house in under 1/2 hour, seems like a great idea to have a bunch of bigger ones powered only by wind. Great idea.
I sure hope though there is a self lubricating engineering design in there!
I think the roof turbine is a great idea because you have this natural surface to collect the wind. There are a few big buts though. Your house better be facing the trade wind direction. The graph showing how solar and wind perfectly accent one another is not the case in many locations where wind typically dies out in the night time as does the sun. Not sure where that graph was produced. I would imagine these could be noisy and add quite a bit of weight to a roof. Unfortunately wind and solar are no replacement for fossil fuels unless one has loads of storage capabilities.
I had a vivid dream about this 15 years ago
Seams like a awful high price for something made almost entirely out of thin sheat metal.
Finally, a great idea becomes a reality
Can they be smaller they look really big
It looks like a great system. Such a shame to be completely cost prohibitive to 99% of the world. Going forward, they couldn't be taken seriously if they claim to be doing it for green reasons.
Probably internals could be 3-d printed as well.
@@keith62970definitely but not all 3d printed parts are outside ok
It would be perfect to go with the solar I already have on my roof. The company should look at how to integrate the systems.
Worldwide politicians, millionaires/billionaires don't want us to have these. No money in it for them. This is one more way to put an end to their greed. I'm in!
You‘r absolutely right. But we can have our free Energy these times when we gather together as a community 💪🏽
Thanks for the support 🔥
oh ffs scam alert
@@nubbynubs123How’s that? Cutting the cord is good for your wallet and the climate! I did and love the security of producing my own energy!😅
And the company wants to be billionaire. $45k!?Great amazing product, but does it really cost that much to make? Just like solar. Expensive and almost not worth it unless you have the money
Sad thing is politicians always screaming green green carbon footorint yet this lifestyle not promoted.
I had this Idea 15 years ago never acted on it , I even had a drawing of it .
water wheels have been around for many 100s of years, so no invention here.
I wonder how noisy that is inside the house. Any resonant frequency vibration (like a dryer in another room).
Does it warm itself, and the panels? Why miss out, right?
A mistake: @1:32 the clip on 'wind speed doubling increases power output 8x' is wrong - it's doubling the length of the blades does this. THAT is why turbines are getting bigger, nothing to do with wind speed.
Yeah how do you turn your roof when the wind direction changes?
How is this cheaper then paying a electric Bill? With a start price around $58 thousand I would have to live until at least 200 years old to start getting my money back.
I'd need to know more about the noise generated by these turbines, but it doesn't really matter because the price is so ridiculous that I don't need to ask.
Look like it is best to install these when you build a new house, that way you can face them in the right direction of the wind.
Their website says 5kwh per 5 units not 1.
That system will last till the first snow storm and then freeze solid for the rest of the winter.
Does the rotor spin in both directions?

How quiet are these things? How much electro-magnetic interference do they generate?
Looks brilliant! But it could make bird watching traumatic.😂
Can you add this to cars?
what does it look like when a bearing breaks - what does it look like for the typical home owner to clean each year - has anyone seen the leaves, ice and other materials that get wedged in the climate change climate on a rooftop? Where does this work - places that are typicallly 70 degrees and sunny with mild winds? Show me a winter storm like the Dakotas down through Texas with hail the size of snowballs.
It looks like they are installed in a fixed orientation. In Oklahoma the wind "comes sweepin' down the plains" from all directions. How does this deal with that?
It sang in my head..
at my home sometimes the wind comes from the East and other time from the west. and because these cant rotate with the wind i see this as a problem.
Great point 👍🏼 we gonna introduce some that solves these problems. Stay tuned :)
my friend, on the wind map you have put in 80m height, yes there you have windspeeds of 8m/s and more, but quite few roofs like that are at 80m height.
If it can work on a roof ridge, it can work on a house wall corner, too?
Can you imagine having to clean out the blades from the errant bird or unlucky squirrel 😂
You’re $530 a year Wind Turbine maintenance figure is miles out! I have a lot of different turbines near me, my next door neighbour has a 50 kW endurance it has had to have the blade replaced at a Cushty £11,000 each! The 2 MW Siemens turbines near me have had problems with the main HV transformer at a tidy 30,000 each!
What if the wind 8s blowing in the opposite direction? You can't just turn your house around.
Hey, thanks for the good question.
Its designed to harness the wind from both directions.
Rectifier circuit to switch AC current to DC current.
And there goes all the neighbourhood bird life, bees and anything else that flies into it, Also what happens in winter with a little ice or snow, Wouldn't this will seize up?
It seems too good to be true, despite the up-front cost.
Dream on...
It's prohibitively expensive. I could have a 25kw solar system with a 56Kwh battery backup for less than 7 of these turbines that produce about 3.5kw
if you think bigger and make it bigger, you can install it on mountain tops
The 6 meters/second mentioned at6:45 equals about 13.4 mph.
Sounds like a great idea but it’s gonna be loud AF.
How are turbines and solor recycled. Lets discuss that.
Compare to Aeromine? Which better?
Where can i buy these
I wonder if a smaller version could be used on EV's to recharge the battery as you drive?
Does it have a dead bird digging tool?
Its shaped identical to a fan from a range cooker.
Can we make the part out of recycled plastic and how do we make it affordable
Who cleans the leaves out of the units?
Does anyone know how to contact the Ridge Blade manufacturer/representative? I have exhausted trying to contact anything connected to Ridge Blade. I even viewed a picture of the system installed on the air force museum in Canada and contacted the museum to see if they could give me contact information. My email to the museum was forwarded from the Director to the Operations guy. This was the response:
"I don’t believe it ever worked. I wouldn’t know where to send you for more info."
Does anyone have any additional information? Many thanks!
*If I had a dollar for every cheap energy story out there I wouldn't care what energy cost.* 😂🎉😂
This sounds like something that would go great on a garage.
People wanting South facing homes might not be the right angle for the wind. Especially in areas where wind goes east-west
No one cares which way their garage faces, and many have them at a 90deg angle to their house. Which lines up with the wind.
By the way... thunderstorms are not becoming more frequent and severe.
If this system is viable, Asia will eventually mass produce them for a fraction of the cost. I will wait until then to buy.
I would imagine these units would make a LOT of noise, which you could hear inside your home. Maybe if you lived in the country and could mount the units on an out building, it might work.
Another technology we will never hear about
And your explanation of- professor
but like solar, it is going to depend on the environment. some areas you aren't get that much wind, but you if there are a lot of sunny days each year, thenit will be this wind turbine. and in other instances the environment might be better to use the wind turbine, or both. In addition, it might might be faster/cheaper to scale the installation of a lot more solar panels then wind turbines. So the 220% figure is nonsense, that isn't how it will work in production.
Great idea but how much does it cost? Where do you get it? I went on their website and they have all the information about about it except how much it is and where to buy it. They would be much more successful if their customers could actually buy the product
