Apple to harness wind energy with its on-demand system

Jan. 11, 2013

Dive Summary:

• Apple Inc. has recently filed a patent for a new on-demand system that will harness stored wind energy.
• Specifically, the patent relates to techniques for storing rotational energy from a wind turbine as heat and using it to subsequently generate electricity on demand.
• The invention provides a system that generates electricity by converting rotational energy into a low-heat-capacity fluid.

From the article:

Apple's system of patent FIG. 1 above may store energy from the wind turbine and subsequently generate electricity from the stored energy based on electric demand.

The on-demand generation of electricity from stored wind energy may additionally reduce costs associated with the operation of other power stations to offset fluctuations in electricity generation from wind power. ...?
