CHAM, SWITZERLAND--(Marketwire - December 8, 2008) - E-wire -- Will this be his new launching?
The engineer from the German State of Mecklenburg-Pomerania has a
revolutionary idea, the creation of clean energy with a new innovative
power plant. His idea will soon be mass-produced.
Peter Meuser (64). He's reaching for the stars again. The Lieutenant
Colonel in the National People's Army (former East Germany) designed the
Arkana System. It is a computer simulation. The system is used to defend
the coast. In case of defence the system used fighter pilots and also
missiles to defend against aggressors attacking from the air and it was
effective. It was so effective that the Bundeswehr (Federal Armed Forces in
Germany) later continued to use it.
The Lieutenant Colonel became a civil engineer in 1990. The eco-tinkerer is
available. Peter Meuser: "Conventional wind power plants do produce green
electricity, but in order to function they themselves use conventional
electricity."
With his company "Nordwind" (15 employees) he has developed a very
innovative wind power plant. It functions using a hydraulic drive without
the need for an external power source or a costly transmission.
Meuser: "Precisely the transmission is prone to breakdown in conventional
power plants. Due to the constant changes in wind speed they wear out
quickly. And repairing them is expensive." His power plant on the other
hand absorbs powerful wind gusts, which blow against the rotor-with a
hydraulic system including a pressure control valve.
Meuser's power plant is cheaper in production and in operation -- and it
can moreover become a job engine. The engineer: "The prototype that will be
able to produce 150 kilowatts will be ready at the end of November 2008. A
second 850kW unit will be ready in December 08." The State Building
Authority is examining promotion of the 60-million Euro project.
