What is TiVA?
The Tiny Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (TiVA) is a downscaled VAWT with tiny dimensions with essential purpose. Because of their small size, less materials are needed for construction, less money are spent and we can rapidly research, prototype and test different wind turbine designs. Any successful design may then be scaled up and used at larger turbines.


Features

  • Modularity - all parts like rotors, generators, hubs and electronics are designed independent from one another so that different part configurations can be tested to find the optimal ones. The different parts can be prototyped, tested, repaired and improved separately and in parallel. Thus new innovations can be introduced quicker using less resources.
  • Scalability - the TiVA can be easily scaled up to produce more power.
  • Do It Yourself - we empower every individual, by design, to easily build the wind turbine.
  • Low-Cost - the TiVA uses cheaper materials, less bearings and axles, less machining operations and costs around 200 Euro.
  • Mobility is achieved throught the tiny size and less weight.
  • Collects wind from every direction: no need for a directional control (+less mechanics and electronics)
  • Batteries can be charged quick&dirty with a simple charging circuit from a small wind turbine, which would not be possible with a high power wind turbine.
