Wind to Watts, is designer Fabien Brun’s radical approach to decentralized energy infrastructure. The system is designed for off-grid and hard-to-reach environments where traditional wind turbines are impractical or impossible to install. The turbines employ a modular construction approach and are built from lightweight aluminium tubes and recyclable plastic tarpaulins. The design approach makes the turbines both portable and modular allowing it to be assembled on site without specialised equipment, opening up possibilities for temporary installations in remote landscapes, temporary sites, disaster zones or rural communities with limited infrastructure.
