More Power with Wind Lens
Wind Lens Advantages
2. Quiet: You can install it in the urban, residential, or in the farm areas and it does not affect people or the animals
Wind Lens is Quieter!
More Wind Lens Advantages3. It rotates like a weathervane so it always faces
the incoming wind 4. No bird strikes reported5. It is safe, because it is shrouded by a covering
structure 6. And it is less vulnerable to lightning, because

Market Goal1. We want to integrate Wind Lens with existing
renewable energy installations
2. We are not trying to compete with solar and other renewable energy products
3. We want Wind Lens to co-exist with them, and be used with them
Wind Lens Wind TurbineWhat we are looking for in the U.S.
1. We are not looking for volume buyers because we are not set up to do the volume production yet
2. We are looking for someone who wants to license this technology to make this in the U.S. or in North America
3. And we always welcome investment
