Eco-Curtain

Inaba Electric Works has developed Eco-Curtain, a wind-powered system designed for integration in building facades. The curtain, displayed here above the entrance to a shopping mall in Nagoya, Japan, demonstrates a creative solution for environmentally-friendly power generation within a dense urban environment. The structure is comprised by 775 vertical-axis windmills which should produce 7,551 kilowatt-hours annually. Inaba has also integrated solar panels at the top of the structure for increased generation capacity.
