Home Wind Turbines
We are dedicated to bringing the power of wind and other sustainable
energy products to the home. The movement of air is an ever present
force in our world, and it has the power to radically change the way we
produce and consume power. In this time when there is high variability
in oil and gas prices and the consumer is becoming more conscientious
of the environment, wind power is emerging as a viable alternative to
produce energy for many households who reside in areas with average
sustained winds of more than 7 miles per hour. While the upfront cost
of a home wind turbine may discourage some consumers from purchasing a
wind generator, a logical way of thinking about this sort of purchase
is that a buyer of a wind turbine is essentially pre-paying for the
energy that the generator will produce and locking in energy costs. If
you amortize the cost over the generator over its 20 year life, in this
time of ever increasing electricity costs from Utility Companies,
owners of wind turbines for their homes have procured fixed price
electricity for the duration of the unit. In addition the US Federal
Government allows for a 30% tax credit for the full price of the Wind
Turbine equipment and installation which lowers the initial investment
significantly. Also many states have their own renewable energy rebate
and credit programs which makes owning a wind turbine more affordable
than ever. So now more than ever owning a Home Wind Turbine makes
economic sense as well as being a great way to be environmentally
conscience by reducing your carbon footprint.
Wind is known as the flow of air through the earth's atmosphere. This
air flow is created by the disparate heating of different portions of
the earth via sunlight. Sunlight must pass through the atmosphere
before it strikes the earth's surface.. The sun strikes the earth an an
angle, which means that at the equator and the tropics, the sun has the
most direct path to the surface. When sunlight strikes the poles, it
must travel through hundreds of miles more atmosphere to reach the
surface. This difference causes the air, ocean, and land to heat
differently at the poles than the equator, and this difference in heat
(and therefore pressure) is what causes the air to move.
Knowing how to harness wind is essential . The simplest way to harness
its power for use is with the turbine, and more effectively for
individuals, with home wind turbines. The mechanical basis for the
turbine has been in existence for centuries, since the invention of the
mill. A mill was originally intended to grind corn, wheat, or other
grain into flour. Early men sought to find more effective ways to run
their mills which led to earlier versions of. It had large blades that
were set in a vertical wheel shape. The axle of this wheel was
connected via gears to the mill stone, so that when the air turned the
blades outside, it caused the mill inside to turn as well. The modern
home wind turbine replaces the mill apparatus with a simple generator
which produces electricity that can be used to power a house, boat or
provide electricity to a remote location. The amount of wind power
available to harness worldwide is currently in the range of 72
terawatts. This is more than four times the total annual power
consumption of the entire world!
An effective way to harness wind power is with a home wind turbine.
These turbines are scaled to comply with residential structural codes
and noise ordinances. Because wind power is inconsistent in most areas
of the world, we don't recomend normally that our customers utilize a
wind generator alone to power a house. However, a single wind generator
can ease the grid drawn power a household utilizes, and if coupled with
other forms of clean energy, such as solar power, home wind turbines
can be part of a completely off grid home's power network. Multiple
turbines can even be connected with a battery storage system in a type
of miniature wind farm for the household that wants to be completely
reliant on air for power. One of the most impressive aspects of air as
a power source is that once the turbine is in place, it operates at
zero carbon consumption, making it an extremely environmentally
friendly power source!

Hydros is the movement to fight the water crisis worldwide and
eliminate the need for bottled water. With $1 from every bottle sold,
Hydros funds sustainable water projects to help the nearly one billion
people who do not have access to water. Meanwhile, your Hydros Bottle
is designed for use everyday at water fountains, kitchen sinks, and
bathroom taps here in the US. Get great tasting water on the go and
never buy expensive bottled water again!
Hydros: A Startup Story
Back in Spring 2009, Jay and Aakash made the decision to start Hydros
at 4am in the basement of a University of Pennsylvania study hall. The
two undergraduates were busy writing a business plan for the Dell
Social Innovation Competition, due in just 8 short hours. Their idea:
sell a filtering water bottle to raise money for global water projects
and rid the world of plastic bottled water. To create the plan, Jay
drew on his field experience building rural water infrastructure with
Penn Engineers Without Borders while Aakash implemented concepts from
his social entrepreneurship courses in the Wharton Business School.
After finishing as semifinalists in the competition, they walked away
from their future jobs, emptied their tiny bank accounts (saving was
not a priority in college), and set out to develop the first prototype.
They linked up with their friend Winston from Johns Hopkins and
leveraged the expertise of Innova Dynamics, an advanced materials
technology firm, for filtration development. In less than a year they
found investors (real live angels), manufacturing partners (Hydros is
made locally in the US), and the first retail placement (thanks Whole
Foods!). Hydros donates $1 for every bottle sold to our first project,
a partnership with Engineers Without Borders USA in the village of
Gundom, Cameroon. The project uses local labor, local materials, and
local management, so it will be a permanent feature of the community
long after the Hydros-EWB team leaves.
Thanks for your support and help us get the word out!
The Hydros Vision
At Hydros we envision a future where you do not have to go out of your
way to live a sustainable life. Every day people make choices with
their actions, and we work for a world where the sustainable options
are also the easy, convenient, and financially smart options.
