"This portfolio represents a major technological leap forward in the wind power industry by significantly reducing the cost of energy while increasing efficiency, and moving us closer to realizing the full potential of both onshore and offshore wind power," says Dean Becker, CEO of ICAP Patent Brokerage.
Key Characteristics & Benefits
The IP package for sale includes a gearless technology for wind turbines based on a high efficiency hydraulic drivetrain with high-voltage synchronous generator. This wind power solution improves upon current technology as it does not require a mechanical gearbox, frequency converter, transformer, or permanent magnets. Key benefits of the system include a lower top weight, fewer critical components, and improved reliability, which results in lower capital expenditures and operating expenses and, ultimately, reduced energy costs for service providers as well as end users.
This unique hydraulic transmission technology was developed by leading Norwegian and UK wind turbine scientists, and further cultivated at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, with support from Statoil, venture capitalists, and Innovation Norway investments.
