6 Core Beliefs Behind the New 'Apple Watch' 3D-printed Mobile Wind Turbine is Open Source and Puts 300W in Your Backpack. Portable solar power has already taken off, but what about when the sun goes down?
Could massive wind turbines be scaled down for personal use? Poznan, Poland-based 3D printer manufacturer Omni3d has developed a 3D-printed, foldable wind turbine that can generate up to 300W of clean electricity — enough to power multiple smartphones, laptops, lightbulbs and other small appliances. The AirEnergy 3D can fit in a backpack and could be used for everyone from campers in North America to villagers in Sub-Saharan Africa. The team is making the design database open source so anyone around the world can easily build it with the goal of providing clean electricity to poor areas off the grid. Their goal is to raise around $30,000 and they are currently halfway to reaching that goal with 28 days to go. Related: Portable Gadgets that Generate Renewable Energy.

Spain Met More than a Third of July's Electricity Demand with Wind and Solar Power.
July was a banner month in Spain in terms of renewable energy production with 34 percent of the country’s energy needs being met by wind and solar energy.
Wind was the prominent low-carbon energy source in the Iberian Peninsula, providing 30 percent of the country’s energy needs, while solar power supplied about 4 percent. July’s renewable energy output is particularly noteworthy considering that the total combined energy provided by wind and solar in the entire first six months of 2014 only reached approximately 25.3 percent. In 2013, Spain’s renewable energy technologies generated 49 percent of the country’s energy demands. Out of the three major providers of renewable energies (wind, solar PV and solar thermal), the wind energy sector has been steadily growing in production rate, providing much more energy than its low-carbon energy counterparts.
