“Our belief is that by making it easier to generate green energy, people will be encouraged to play a bigger role in conserving our planet.”

Nicolas Orellana is the inventor and CEO behind the O-Wind, a simple turbine that can harness winds from any direction, enabling it to generate clean electricity from the powerful, but chaotic winds found in towns and cities. O-Wind turbines can be collected to the grid, or to stand-alone batteries. The team won the James Dyson Award in 2018.
