Wind Energy Shell Turbine Station, WETSS, is a super-tall shell like frame structure, supports pluralities of small wind turbines, HAWT or VAWT to harvest wind kinematical energy at large average height, generates electricity then Hydrogen and store it to generate electricity consistent with demand by fuel cells. WETSS typical height to width ratio 4-10, thickness 8-25 m depending on the seismic region. typical height 1,200-2,000 m, and width or diameter 200-500 m, typical real capacity 750 MW-3.75 GW fluctuating electricity and 200 MW-1 GW consistent with demand electricity, for 6 m/sec wind speed sites (13.4 Mile/h). Typical WETSS requires about 1/500 average land requirements used by current utility wind turbines. WETSS is typically made from steel. Seismic and wind design forces are comparatively very low because WETSS weighs less than 2% of similar size conventional steel building (Because of shell shape and less floors and less loads) and because of wind energy consumptions by turbines and openings. |
