The US-based energy company Flower Tubines is working on a project to build tulip-shaped wind turbines in residential areas in the Netherlands and Germany.

Tulip turbines are “planted” in urban areas, on the rooftops of houses in Amsterdam, the Netherlands Traditional wind turbines are often located in the sea, are huge in size, make loud noises, can harm birds, and it is important that very strong winds are needed to generate electricity. The new tulip-shaped design overcomes all of the above shortcomings, it only needs a normal wind to generate enough electricity for a family to use comfortably all day. Israeli-American Dr Daniel Farb, the inventor of the tulip turbine, said the unique aerodynamic design makes the turbines quiet, efficient and capable of generating more than 50% of the electricity in clusters. Shaped like glossy flowers in a variety of colors and sizes (1m, 3m and 6m high), the tulip turbines are designed to double duty as electricity generation and artistic decoration on the rooftops. home, shopping mall, school… In addition, a solar system combined with tulip turbines could reduce overcrowding during the late afternoon peaks in many parts of the world when sunlight goes out and strong winds pick up.
