Take a look at this! It’s a proposed wind farm that’s probably unlike any wind farm you’ve seen. Discovery News is showcasing a new design by Atelier DNA which has come up with a concept that does away with the traditional blades in favor of what looks more like stalks. These stalks capture energy when they are blown by the wind and that energy is stored in batteries at the base of the stalk. The design created for a proposed no vehicle park site in Abu Dhabi. Among the potential benefits are less noise pollution and less chance of injury for wildlife and birds in the area.
