## Hello my fellow Steemians It's been a while since I've done one of these articles, but I want to bring them back! From here on, I will be continuing my series of weekly technologies that I believe may be used immediately, to bring massive abundance to humanity, and my understanding of them. Today's article covers a technology that has enhanced wind power by re-designing the windmill. <center>![McCanneyWingGenerator.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPtLBXFZ7fP6KmipSwaKdb7JamWTD1uwpWgx1wJsA1nrE/McCanneyWingGenerator.jpg)</center> [Sauce](https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/mccanney-wing-generator-world-energy-project#/) Recently, I heard about James Mccanney from an episode of Declare Your Independence Podcast with Ernest Hancock. James McCanney is a physicist that was charged to do a study of how possible it was to transition over to pure alternative energy and away from coal, oil, nuclear power systems. What he discovered was it would not be feasible to meet all energy needs using solar, wind common alternative energy technologies. While looking into the standard windmill design he discovered how horribly inefficient they are and how costly the systems were for what you get. This led him down the path to redesigning the windmill. His design features blades that catch the wind and operate much like a planes wing causing a pressure differential from the airfoil of the blades which produces lift. <center>![McCanneyngGenerator.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmexj2zXY68UnpjuvP3XodsbSAW5SepTsUQpa1fvUrsdkk/McCanneyngGenerator.jpg)</center> [Sauce](https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/mccanney-wing-generator-world-energy-project#/) The windmill harvests the energy from the wind so efficiently he was able to pair it with an energy intensive atmospheric water generator device which converts humidity from the air to clean drinking water. The McCanney WING Generator was a finalist in the X-Prize for water abundance. ## Check out the video below to learn more! <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7ozm1CoXzCg" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> The prize awarded whomever could create a solution to produce 2,000L of water per day at a cost of $.02/day. ## This technology could begin being implemented in small communities and off grid properties to help propel the technology forward.

Unfortunately, you (and probably the original writer) did not discuss anything important about this design. Specifically, what does it do in the two conditions that plague all wind generators. Low wind speed and very high wind speed. Further, every windmill i know has their blades designed like you would an airplane wing. The best one i know, was so designed as to slow itself down if it spun too fast. (the wing / propeller shape)

Thank you for the comment and good points @builderofcastles from what I understand. The turbine like design is able to create a high torque output and can handle huge changes in wind speed while outputting three phase high voltage electricity. I will add more and edit the article to share more of the pro's of this design vs. standard windmill designs. Posted using [Partiko Android](https://steemit.com/@partiko-android)

There is only one windmill that i know that puts out actual line current. So, three phase... high voltage... all of that is completely useless information. The important thing, and the only important thing in this area is, what percentage of the motor rating does this new design continuously put out. I know this is a bogus measurement, but it is what is allowed or not allowed. What makes or breaks a windmill. ---- Do you know why the particular shape of windmills across america is? Why do all the farms have this multiblade fan design? It is because it handles high windspeeds by creating drag slowing it down. So, what is important to me is the output per windspeed graph. (which also shows maximum wind speed.

That looks like it could be easily scaled down and built with PVC and tarps... bet it's be easy to make a 10 or 20 foot turbine. Wonder how much electricity could be generated with one that size.
