BMW has once again demonstrated its commitment to achieving its green production goals and has begun testing its bladeless wind turbine technology. This system, developed by Aeromine Technologies , has a different structure than traditional wind turbines. The system, which is located on the roof of the BMW factory in Oxford, has a design with no moving parts, which reduces the impact on the environment and produces energy more quietly.

In fact, the working principle of these turbines is based on capturing air and generating electricity through a mechanism located inside. Unlike classic wind turbines , Aeromine’s design does not have any visible propellers from the outside. Instead, vertical profiles resembling airplane wings are used to direct the airflow to the rear part, generating electricity.

Naturally, vibration and noise are also kept to a minimum, reducing the negative impact on environmental life. In addition, the system is made of durable and recyclable materials, as well as being environmentally friendly. For a long time, solar panels have been used to generate energy at BMW’s Oxford plant.

More than 11,000 panels on the roof generate enough electricity to power 850 homes a year . However, solar energy production is limited during the winter months and at night, and that’s where Aeromine’s bladeless wind turbine comes in. It makes up for the solar panels’ shortcomings by continuing to generate energy throughout the night and when the wind is strong.

BMW’s testing of this technology has once again demonstrated the importance of sustainable energy sources in industrial production. The factory, which uses both solar and wind energy, has become an important example of reducing its carbon footprint by operating with renewable energy.
