Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) - better than blade wind turbine
Just get an idea of it and you can build or buy from the company if you have $$$.
It can be used as a wind turbine or hydro turbine on stream water or fall, or attaching solar panel on the blade is feasible for solar power station also.
Another thing I want to add is below 4m/s wind speed, it fails to generate any usable power. Assuming the inventor is smart, he forgets one thing. Slow turning wheel with enough torque can turn a smaller wheel using gear or pulley to generate steady power.
It's inferior design compared to Viktor Schauberger's turbines but people are getting close to catch up his idea of harnessing vortex power in nature. ^^
