E-Balloon

Current prototype for a lighter-than-air tethered wind turbine use a horizontal axis for its generator. This kind of mechanism (as on the majority of land/sea based wind turbines) has high dependency on wind direction. The turbine has to be facing toward the air stream to get its optimum rotation.

But, as on land/sea based wind turbines,

Eco-8 Roof Panels and Trusses

What problem does your design idea solve?

·Typical PV solar panels are roof mounted and requires another structural frame to support the panel. Mounting brackets can penetrate the roofing and cause leaks.

·Solar hot-water panels have the same problems; leaking piping requires replacing panels.

·Re-roofing requires removal of PV and hot-water panels.
