Research abstract
CBC’s HIPS solution is a low-profile, omni-directional wind turbine that can be rapidly deployed and safely emplaced anywhere on an Agile Combat Employment (ACE) airfield without risking aircraft collisions, disrupting radar, nor requiring re-deployment to face the wind. The HIPS makes wind safe, practical, and scalable in ways that traditional wind energy is not. CBC will conduct an R/R&D feasibility study to identify ways to develop a customized low-profile wind turbine that can produce 1kW of power to to support equipment in austere, high wind and cold environments.
