Wind Car
An Electric car that runs on Wind energy.
Global warming is a real threat to human kind existence and green house gases from car engine combustions contributes to the ozone layer destruction. Our idea solution is to harness the wind energy to power cars in an environmentally friendly manner. The solution will change the world by revolutionizing the automobile industry that is mostly powered by the fossil fuel. I have designed a concept car that run on wind energy by having twin turbines fitted and as the car is in motion, the blades moves that then convert wind energy into electrical energy that is stored in a lithium battery which powers the car

It's a new technology in the automotive industry. It will be the first electric car that runs on wind.
In the next 12 months I am planning to have a prototype car fitted with mini wind turbines running.
My vision is to have a wind car commercialized within the next 5 year. This will positively impact greater number of people as there will be no need to install many charging point as is current practice for the electric cars. The wind car battery will be automatically charged when the car is in motion with rotating blades in an environmentally friendly manner!

We will reach our customers through various marketing platform and as we will be competing with organizations such as TESLA, we will retain them as our cars will be most convenient because there's no need to stop and recharge the battery.
We are still at idea stage.
In 12 months our 1st car prototype will be built. In 3 years we will be touching over a million lives daily through our products and/or services when valuable time it takes to charge an electric car battery will be saved to reduced greenhouse gases emissions.

1.Myself Immanuel Hango as the lead innovator, is a registered professional Engineer and also holds an MBA in entrepreneurship from Steinbeis University, Berlin. I also studied business and entrepreneurship at Drake University in Iowa, USA as a part of the Mandela Washington fellowship program where met the then US President Obama.
2. Pelivavali Nghivalwa who is the Finance administrator hold Master in Finance from London School of Business and finance.
Our revenue model is to sell wind car models to our customer and we will be in direct competition with TESLA, but our competitive advantage that will guarantee our sustainability is that our cars won't need charging point which will less capital cost as well as convenient to our customers.
I has been admiring MIT as leader in technology research and I believe this institution will help research more and advance the wind energy car concept.
Key barriers are funds and skills or corroborative peers to advance the concept.
