The Mechanical Team is currently developing a human-scale Savonius vertical axis wind turbine. A simple, low-emission solution for capturing wind energy. From the outset, our aim has been to design a system that’s both practical and sustainable, using accessible materials and fabrication methods.

We’re now in the final stages of machining and assembly. Once complete, we’ll collaborate with the Electrical team to integrate the turbine’s monitoring and energy storage systems. Hardware completion is expected by November 2025, followed by full system testing.

This project has offered valuable hands-on experience in mechanical design, manufacturing, and interdisciplinary teamwork, and we’re excited to see it come to life.
