Technology
The AEROGRID® system
Zero-rotary aerofoil oscillation + solar energy with integrated sun tracking. Patented hexagonal ducted panels harvest turbulent ground-wind through rapid aerofoil oscillation. Gusts of 4 m/s are abundant across ~80% of the globe.
Mechanism
No rotating components
Rather than a rotor swept by steady high-altitude laminar wind, AEROGRID uses aerofoils that oscillate rapidly in response to turbulent gusts at ground level — the wind that exists almost everywhere.
- No rotating components — oscillating aerofoils
- Modular panels — urban, highway, airport, industrial, communities, almost anywhere
- 25+ year service and warrantied lifespan
- Daily sun tracking boosts solar up to 30%
The Hex Unit is the platform’s building block. Roughly 40 Hex Units make up a 100kW array, producing 400MWh/yr per year of 24-hour usable electricity, with six independent power generation ducts that can be serviced individually without powering down the array.
Anatomy
Take it apart. Build it up.
Four parts make a Hex Unit; twelve Hex Units make a 32 kW array; thirty-three arrays make the megawatt block every number on this page is priced on.

Oscillating aerofoils
Aerofoils that flutter rapidly in turbulent gusts instead of rotating. They respond to changes in wind speed and direction within a second — the reason 2.4 m/s is enough to start generating.

AEROGRID vs Solar
AEROGRID produces 4.3GWh per year from our 1MW installation on one quarter of the footprint; whereas solar can only produce 2.8GWh per year with a 4× bigger footprint — making AEROGRID 4× denser and 54% more productive than solar.

Problem & solution
Why existing renewables leave energy on the table
The problem
Traditional renewable solutions face significant limitations:
- Conventional wind systems cannot economically capture turbulent ground-level gusts.
- Solar generation stops at night and requires expensive battery storage for 24/7 operation.
- Large renewable installations require substantial land and infrastructure investment.
- Grid operators and customers seek more stable, predictable renewable generation profiles.
The AEROGRID solution
AEROGRID combines:
- Patented oscillating aerofoil wind technology
- Integrated solar generation with daily solar tracking
- Hydraulic energy buffering and grid-friendly power conversion
- Modular, scalable architecture for urban, industrial, transportation, and utility applications
The result is a renewable energy platform capable of harvesting both wind and solar resources while delivering 24-hour generation profile.
The measurement gap
The world has been measuring the wrong wind
Conventional wind relied on MET data averaged over long intervals — a smooth profile that hides the real energy in ground-level turbulent gusts.
What MET data shows
- 1-hour averages flatten gust energy
- Smooth profiles look commercially weak
- Devices designed for the wrong wind
What was missed
- Ground-level turbulent gust energy
- Vortex paths and micro-events
- Abundant usable wind in populated regions

Programme footprint
Where AEROGRID is being validated and deployed
One validation center, one technology base, and Showcase territories on three continents — all on the ground-level wind that is routine across most of the populated world.
~80%of the globe sees routine 4 m/s ground-level gusts
Case study
Advancing Green Airports
Airports sit on exactly the wind AEROGRID is built for — open, unobstructed ground where turbulent low-level gusts run all day beside land that is already in operational use.
Our case study examines onsite low-level wind energy generation at Edinburgh Airport: the resource available at ground level, how it maps onto airside land, and what onsite generation means for an operator working toward net zero.
