Amazing Wind Tree Sculpture

Company New Wind has created the wind tree
Wind power generated from light breezes
Perfect for backyards or even rooftops
The Aeroleaves are completely silent when spinning and can generate power from winds as slow as 5 mph.
It can generate power from wind coming in at any direction
A single Aeroleaves tree can provide around 3.1 KW which is enough power 15 street lamps for a year
The first wind trees were installed in Paris
The steel tree stands 36 feet tall by 26 feet in diameter. Each tree has 72 artificial wind turbine leaves
Aside from generating power it also stands as a piece of modern art
The wind tree is designed to withstand a category 3 hurricane
Cost $36,500 which they say will pay for itself after only a few years
