Futuristic facades – building envelope that can harvest wind energy

Over the years, with rising awareness about the depleting conventional resources, there has been an increased focus on renewable means of energy and wind energy has captured the interest of energy enthusiasts all over the world. In India, the development of wind power began only in the 1990s, and has significantly increased in the last few years. Although a relative newcomer to the wind industry compared with Denmark or the United States, India has the fifth largest installed wind power capacity in the world and accounts for almost 8.5% of the total installed power capacity in India.

Due to the large size equipment and little or no subsidy from government side, citizens show little interest in wind energy because of the remote location of wind farms and their reputation to be unsuitable for habitation and recreation. In recent years scant progress is made to address this issue in order to create cheaper, eye catching and more efficient wind energy systems.
