| “ | Wind turbines designed for the atmospheric conditions prevailing on the Red Planet. Initially, the wind turbines, whose design was considered for use on Mars, underwent tests in Antarctica. Only after obtaining the required results was it possible to introduce turbines on an extraterrestrial planet. Their advantage lies in the fact that they generate a significant amount of energy during dust storms when solar panels do not have access to sunlight. This project has been expanded. Initially, this solution was categorized as risky, but turned out to be perfectly suited for the intended location. | „ |
