Archimedes Green Energys (P) Ltd., is a Hyderabad based company that came out with India's first Rooftop Wind Turbine to generate Green and sustainable energy. The company was established 2016 with Suryaprakash Gajjala as its CEO. He is a technocrat entrepreneur inspired by the "Make in India" initiative of the Indian Government and recipient of MSME National Award from the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, Govt of India in the past.
The silent rooftop wind turbines are capable of generating half of an Indian household's energy needs in a renewable, clean and green way (As wind power is one of the cleanest sources of renewable energy in the world). AWM Archimedes Wind Mill soon to be manufactured commercially in Partnership with Korean ESCO RTS and Netherlands technology.
RENEWX-2017 exhibition at HITEX in Hyderabad of April 2017 shall showcase the prototypes of The Archimedes Wind Mill.
The brand named after the famous Greek mathematician and engineer, the Archimedes Wind Mill can produce 1500kWh of energy at wind speeds of 5m/s-approximately half an average Indian household's uses. This Mill is an outcome of 20 years of R & D (Research & Development) by a Dutch scientist Marinus Mieremet. He has perfected the technology using the principle of Archimedes screw, as a new and more efficient way of generating power by a wind turbine. Traditionally the Dutch have a reputation for obtaining energy through windmills for centuries.
Archimedes Green Energys is setting up a state of the art manufacturing plant in a two acre land at Medchal with a substantial investment. It will have a manufacturing capacity of one lakh units per annum. It will be a global export unit.
The sleek, aesthetically good looking windmill yields more energy, produces little noise, is bird friendly apart from looking good. This maintenance free turbine can be fixed on top of an apartment, in fields and everywhere.
It can rotate 360 degrees into the direction of the wind like a weather wane. The best part is that it also works in low velocity winds from 0.9 meter/Second to as high as 14 meters/second. In high winds such as 22 meters/second, brakes get activated and the turbine stops to avoid damaging itself.
Wind power, as an alternative to burning fossil fuels, is plentiful, renewable, widely distributed, clean, produces no greenhouse gas emissions during operation, consumes no water, and uses little land. Unlike solar power planets, it occupies very little space. It can also be used in combination with solar panels.
The two variants-small of 36Kgs and big 112kgs is easily transportable and is available in six impressive colours. The Wind Mill has Fibre Reinforced Plastic Blades which are long lasting. The company has an MoU with BITS Pilani Goa, for Technical Testing and Certification.
