PROJECT WITH KNUST

MINAGIE Energy, a Ghanaian Renewable Energy Technology Company with a primary focus of electricity generation via wind power using its renewable energy technology solution, seeks to collaborate with KNUST to build the Low-altitude MAGLEV AxiaI-Hybrid Wind Turbine (LAM-AHWT), which is the first of its kind weather independent wind turbine, with greater fluid (air) utilization efficiency than any other conventional wind turbine design on the market.

MINAGIE Energy has reached the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) Stage of the LAM-AHWT.

The aim of the project is to collaborate with KNUST to build and test the MVP: LAM-AHWT at the KNUST campus for wind power electricity generation.

This will be achieved through the following:

I

Installation of the MAGLEV Axial-Hybrid Wind Turbine

II

Supervising the operation of the LAM-AHWT

III

Setting up required data collection devices and procedures

IV

Regular data collection on the operation of the LAM-AHWT

V

Analysis of all data collected
