Airpower Technology Advantages
The Best Energy Production Method
​
1. Energy Availability - Atmospheric air heat is available 24/7 providing continuous
source of very low cost (much less than 1 cent per 1 kilo-watt-hour) and clean
electricity 24/7, thus eliminating the need to store energy by expensive plants.
​
2. Money Saving 1:Airpower electricity production cost will be less than 1 cents per
1KWH- cheaper than any other technology.
3. Money Saving 2: Airpower technology exploits air thermal energy which is available
at night thus eliminating the need to invest in unnecessary energy-producing plants in
order to accumulate energy for night hours.
4. Airpower technology exploits air thermal energy even in cold territories like North
America and northern Europe.
5. Water generation - Converting atmospheric air into electricity may cool the air
below its 100% humidity point, thus water is generated inside the air-generator and
collected for any use. The amount of generated water depends on the air humidity.
1 MW air-generator intakes about 500 kilograms of air per second. If the atmosphere
temperature is 30 degrees Celsius and the humidity is 70%, then this 1MW air-
generator will generate about 170 tons of water per 24 hours.
6. Minimum land area: 1-megawatt (MW) air-generator (AG) is a cylinder of about 7
meters long, 2.5-meter diameter, and weighs about 8 metric tons. The required land
area for 1 MW AG is less than 200 ( two hundred) square meters which are about 1% of
the land required for 1MW photo-voltaic panels field.
Since an AG intakes atmospheric air, it is installed horizontally, thus it generating
horizontal airflow into the AG. This enables putting many AG's, one on top of the
other, thus creating a tower of many air-generators on a very small piece of land.
And since air can flow from a long distance into the AG, the AG can generate electrical
power for unlimited time.
​
5. Maintainability- AG internal parts operate at ambient temperature and below.
Therefore AG mechanism is not exposed to scorching temperature as photo-voltaic
panels, thus the only items needed to be maintained are the bearings.
Further, due to the compact size of 1 MW AG unit, it is much easier to maintain
compared to a photo-voltaic field or wind generation turbine.
​
6. Reliability - Air-generator technology is very reliable due to the fact that its mechanism operates at low temperatures which enable the longevity of the mechanical parts, assuring long life without problems for at least 25 years with minimum maintenance cost.
