#These revolutionary bladeless wind turbines shake to generate electricity WASHINGTON: These bladeless wind turbines can revolutionize the way wind energy is produced.

A startup out of Spain called Vortex Bladeless, whose turbines look like stalks of asparagus poking out of the ground,

Vortex claims that energy produced by its turbines will cost around 40 percent less than energy made from today's wind turbines

The simpler design also means that manufacturing costs are about half that of a traditional wind turbine (those massive blades are expensive.

and every industry is being transformed by smarter digital technologies, and the greatest opportunity lies in energy, said Steve Bolze,

That what will separate industry leaders from those left behind. he Digital Wind farm is based around GE new generation of Brilliant wind turbines

%and could help generate up to an estimated $50 billion of value for the wind industry (based on all wind farms in the world using the latest GE turbines and technology).

E focus on life-cycle operations is consistent with the way we operate our wind farms, said Michael Polsky,

A Spanish company called Vortex Bladeless is proposing a radical new way to generate wind energy that will once again upend

a bladeless wind turbine that looks like a giant rolled joint shooting into the sky. The Vortex has the same goals as conventional wind turbines:

To turn breezes into kinetic energy that can be used as electricity. But it goes about it in an entirely different way.

Based on field testing, the Mini ultimately captures 30 percent less than conventional wind turbines, but that shortcoming is compensated by the fact that you can put double the Vortex turbines into the same space as a propeller turbine.
