Research abstract
Airloom Energy is a cutting-edge wind energy generation company headquartered in Laramie, Wyoming that has the potential to dramatically disrupt the worldwide wind energy market. Airloom utilizes the proven aerodynamics of conventional horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs) but with unique geometry that drastically lowers the Levelized Cost Of Electricity (LCOE) and increases efficiency. Airloom uses less land, requires less infrastructure, and is made with massmanufacturable parts, resulting in cost, logistics, environmental and siting benefits across Airloom’s entire lifecycle.
