Commercial Applications
Because of the unique attributes of Skyron turbines, the siting possibilities for this design are much greater than any propeller style. There are vast amounts of “building acreage” throughout the world that are perfect for commercial size turbines. Commercial enterprises are looking for ways to develop a leadership role in the use of green power. They see this as a way to support their corporate environmental mandates and to further initiatives such as LEED certification.
Port facilities represent an excellent opportunity for the utilization of SKYRON’s turbines. The port’s proximity to coastal areas usually means access to favorable wind conditions. Combining this with large flat-roofed buildings and low mechanical turbulence further accentuates the appropriateness of this field installation.
The architectural design of many business parks allows for flat roofs and open areas where SKYRON's commercial turbines could be placed to good use.
Many shopping centers and malls have large flat roofs that make for excellent installation potential if located within the right wind regime.
Educational facilities such as universities, public, and private schools have the dual advantages of not only becoming a self-generator of electricity, but the turbines can also serve as an educational tool with respect to the study of renewable energy.
With the rising costs of healthcare, medical institutions are searching for ways to reduce costs through more efficient operations. Energy conservation measures play an important role. In addition, control of energy generation costs in light of disadvantageous legislation, grid security issues, and the cost pass-thru associated with improving the transmission infrastructure will become increasingly important.
SKYRON’s turbines give customers the opportunity to determine how they wish to demonstrate their pursuit of clean energy technologies. For those who desire to minimize turbine appearance in light of their building’s original architecture, SKYRON’s turbine can be installed in such a manner so as to minimize visibility, as is depicted in the image above.
