Business Wire
CGE Energy (currently trading as
MKBY:OTCPink) is pleased to announce that it has
received a Notice of Allowance for its patent application titled,
“Fluid driven vertical axis turbine.” This patent includes multiple
independent claims that cover many aspects of CGE Energy’s
WIND-e20® vertical axis wind turbine, including its easy delivery,
collapsible blades and crane-less installation.
“It has been a long patent process, especially when you are
inventing technologies that will revolutionize the renewable energy
sector,” said CGE Energy President and CEO Bryan Zaplitny.
The patent covers the unique hydraulic locking joints within the
turbine’s segmented blades, which allow them to collapse flat
against the rotor. As another claim in the patent, a hydraulic
lifting and transport frame enables the turbine to be delivered on
a flatbed truck and can lie flat for maintenance without the need
of a crane. Conversely, traditional horizontal wind turbines are
assembled after delivery and require costly cranes for installation
and repair.
Collapsible blades not only ease delivery and maintenance, but
also guarantee better security. WIND-e20® can automatically
collapse its blades at the first sign of hurricane winds. This
means it can survive in some of the windiest locations on the
planet, including the Caribbean, where WIND-e20® technology will be
used in the near future. Burtek Enterprises, a five-star military
contractor, is CGE Energy’s strategic partner for the manufacturing
of WIND-e20®.
