WindStream ’ s SolarMill
Technologies . The SolarMill is a hybrid solar panel and wind turbine installation that has unmatched energy density . The SolarMill can also be deployed in markets where there isn ’ t enough solar or wind potential to be worth deploying one or the other on its own .
So , who is WindStream and how is the SolarMill changing the game when it comes to renewable energy installations ?
‘ The SolarMill is a hybrid solar panel and wind turbine installation that has unmatched energy density ’
From Concept to Completion WindStream got its start in 2008 with hopes of engineering and designing a renewable energy device that was accessible and widely available on a global scale .
2009 saw the company set up its R & D arm at the Purdue Research Center in New Albany , Indiana . WindStream allied itself with Purdue , gaining support and resources from the university . It needed all the help it could get , as it aimed to design a device that was not only revolutionary , but needed to be produced on a mass scale .
In 2011 , with several years of prototyping under its belt , the company set up a production facility
