New Generation of Wind Turbines We Turn Energy Consumers into Energy Producers August 2012
Vertical Axis (VAWT) Not sensitive to wind direction Safer, more compact, less noise Appropriate for more populated areas Wind Turbines • Horizontal Axis (HAWT) • Large blades, high speed, efficient • Higher noise, vibration levels • Sensitive to wind direction
Established May 2009 (in L.N. Green Incubator) Developing vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT) First products: VAWT for residential settings Future markets: commercial, urban, large VAWT Strategic partner: Kanfit Ltd About Smart Wind
Core Technology • The innovative technology (by Andrey Kotler) is based on a specific use of Active Flow Control (AFC) aerodynamic technology for increasing air circulation around the rotor blades • US patent application (10/2010) • PCT application (10/2011)
Comparison Experiment Conventional VAWT (Savonius) Smart Wind VAWT Conventional HAWT
Test Results More energy per swept area of rotors
Value Proposition Smart Wind Turbine Generates Per Rotor Swept Area More than 2 Times Energy
Wind Power – Growing Opportunity • Global installed capacity of wind-powered generators > 200GW • Over the past five years the average annual growth in new • installations around the world has been 30%
Small Wind Power – Penetrating to Market Only half of the small wind turbines in China continue to produce electricity Global installed capacity of small wind-powered generators < 0.5GW From the 2012 Small Wind World Report – World Wind Energy Association (WWEA) 10
Small Wind Power – Penetrating to Market US Small Wind Turbine Market Growth From the 2011 US Small Wind Turbine Market Report (AWEA) 11
Small Wind Power – Penetrating to Market UK Market Size Forecast for 2012 Forecast A boom year in the UK small wind market From the 2012 Small and Medium Wind UK Market Report (RenewableUK) 12
Potential of small wind turbines on landed homes in US - above 13 million units Same trend is observed in Great Britain with potential of over 600,000 small wind turbines The Asian market potential is believed to be large Small Wind Power – Market Potential With an average installed cost of 6000 $/kW (AWEA 2011 report) the expected market size in 2020 is $24 Billion From the 2012 Small Wind World Report (WWEA) 13
Business Strategy for Coming Years • Penetrating to the wind market with products for residential settings (1-10kW) • In process of manufacturing and testing first commercial model of about 1kW • The company plans to expand its activity to the commercial wind turbine sector with larger models (above 10kW) • Revenues will be received from selling turbines in the international market • Applying the technology to large VAWT Expecting Break even point in third year of sales and Accumulative net profit of about 20M$ after 5 years 14
Seeking to raise 2M$ for Entering the international market with the first commercial model and Working with the Small Wind Certification Council (SWCC) for certifying this model in US Expanding to larger turbine models Funding
The Company will take control of more than 5% of the wind energy market in 10 years! Thank You Andrey Kotler, Co founder, CTO Mobile +972-54-625-5092 Tel: +972-4-847-0114, kotlervawt@gmail.com Dr. Rami Masri, CEO Prof. Tanchum Weller Academic supervisor, Co founder
