Terawind

Terawind is a company focused on harnessing the strongest winds on Earth for renewable energy generation. The company recognizes that wind energy scales with the cube of wind speed, making high-velocity winds a valuable yet untapped resource. Terawind develops technology capable of adapting to high wind speeds and rapidly changing wind conditions, enabling access to wind power from these strong winds.

The strongest winds on Earth are formed by the movement of air from high to low-pressure areas, deflected by the Earth's rotation, resulting in large-scale wind patterns. These winds are further influenced by the Earth's orography, leading to the formation of Katabatic winds, Foehn winds such as the Mistral and Bora in Europe, and wind speed-up effects on the tops of hills or mountains. Due to their high speed and deflection, these winds contain a significant amount of flow energy, which partially transforms into strong wind gusts and high turbulence, posing a challenge for traditional wind turbine technology.
