Technology

CBC's innovative technology is based upon stationary enclosure that intercepts and concentrates wind in a dynamic chamber, which in turn focuses and directs the wind towards a solid 4-point rotor in the center. This technology is covered by US Patent 10,495,063.

The enclosure is a Category 5 hurricane-resistant structure which houses and supports the rotor. Since it is stationary, the structure can be mounted on the roof of a building. Such a structure lends itself to a product life commensurate with the life span of the building / structure to which it will be mounted. Its appearance can be adapted to 'hide' the system in plain sight. There is no need to point the equipment into the wind. The CBC WES are omni-directional, meaning they can collect wind from all directions.

Since the technology is a stationary mechanical structure, it is analogous to other roof top mounted building systems equipment such as HVAC systems, commercial utility structures, and water tanks for instance.  In the absence of a building on which to mount the equipment (or if preferred), the equipment is fully capable and compatible with ground mounting and tower mounting.  (A compatible tower would be an appropriately sized platform lattice tower, similar to a fire tower)
