A new vertical wind turbine design by SeaTwirl creates a sort of buoy effect so that the turbines can be placed where it couldn't have before.

The total installation capacity of wind energy reached 1TW this year, and by 2050, it is projected to grow to 10TW. A 9 % cost reduction would have a substantial impact on this scale.
