The Front Cover

Vortex Bladeless is a technology that uses the vortex effect. Basically, Vortex Bladeless consists of a conical cylinder fixed vertically on an elastic rod. The cylinder oscillates in the wind, which then generates electricity through a linear alternator’s system.The image on the cover shows a 6 metre height demonstration model of VORTEX installed in Spain. On page 6 you can read the full article about the technology.
