We’ve seen many alternative power generation systems (like deriving megawatts of electricity from a thousand hamsters running furiously on treadmills), but Helix Wind tops them all with sheer coolness and, it is rumoured, cost effectiveness. And by that they probably mean it’s not going to be expensive. Helix Wind is basically a wind turbine whose “turbine” is in the shape of a helix. It runs even if the wind is coming from all crazy directions and even vertically. It doesn’t even have all those height requirements other kinds of wind turbines have. And it’s a lot cheaper and easier to maintain (here we’re just assuming, but go visit Helix Wind’s website and ask them yourself) than solar panel cells.
