Harnessing Wind Power With Sails

wind_dam.jpg

Architects Chetwood Associates are applying for grant to build a large wind dam in Russia. The dam will be located over an extremely windy gorge at Lake Lagoda in north west Russia. The 75 meter sail, the first of its kind will funnel the high winds down to a turbine. Tho the company doesn't mention how much electricity the wind dam can produce, the prospects of new building projects staying green is a definite sign of improvement and advancement.
