CBC Announces Innovative Wind Energy System for U.S. Military

CBC Announces Innovative Wind Energy System for U.S. Military

CBC Wind Energy, a trailblazer in wind energy innovation, has announced the successful delivery of its first rapidly deployable wind energy system to the U.S. military. This achievement marks a pivotal step in tackling the challenges of wind energy generation within military operations. CBC's patented technology, a finalist in the 2019 Rhode Island Business Competition, is recognized for its resilience, efficiency, and adaptability.

Central to CBC's technology is a stationary enclosure that captures and concentrates wind within a dynamic chamber, directing it towards a solid four-point rotor. Unlike traditional wind turbines, CBC's design optimizes wind capture without enlarging the blades, ensuring both efficiency and durability. The structure is designed to withstand Category 5 hurricanes, guaranteeing robust performance even in extreme weather.

Military Advantages

The U.S. military benefits significantly from CBC's 100% made-in-America supply chain, ensuring the system is not at the mercy of manufacturers in less friendly countries like China. Unlike most wind turbines, the CBC solution is silent and blends seamlessly into the built environment, making it a less obvious target for adversaries. Additionally, generating electric energy from a CBC Wind system reduces the risks associated with resupplying traditional generators with fuels like diesel, which can necessitate dangerous trips across hostile territories.

Robert Baxter, Founder and CEO of CBC Wind Energy, underscores the urgent need for resilient power solutions in military operations. "There is an unmet need across the Department of Defense for resilient power that can be rapidly deployed. CBC's unique wind enclosure does not require towers and can be deployed rapidly with just a few personnel,” Baxter asserts. This feature is especially vital for applications ranging from forward operating bases to disaster response missions.

Key Technology Features

Covered by US Patent 10,495,063, CBC's system collects wind from all directions, eliminating the need to orient the equipment. The enclosure's dynamic shaping adjusts to wind speed and direction, maximizing efficiency. Multiple generators powered by a single rotor ensure uninterrupted power production, enhancing reliability.

Potential Across Military Branches

CBC's innovative wind energy system holds great potential for the U.S. Air Force, Army, Marines, and the larger Department of Defense. Its rapid deployment, low-cost power at 4-5 cents per kWh, and compatibility with various environments make it an ideal solution for diverse military applications.

Value Proposition

CBC's wind energy system offers several distinct benefits, including:

  • Rapid Deployable Scale Wind Energy: The system can be quickly deployed with minimal personnel.

  • Cost-Effective Power: Providing power at 4-5 cents per kWh.

  • Energy Resilience and Security: Ensuring continuous power supply through multiple redundant generator systems.

  • Compatibility with Built Environment: Seamlessly integrates with military structures, whether mounted on rooftops or the ground.


"This technology not only meets the immediate needs of the military but also enhances overall mission readiness and resilience," Baxter explains. "Our wind enclosure system is designed to provide reliable power in the aftermath of extreme weather events and in hostile environments, ensuring that military operations can continue uninterrupted."

As CBC Wind Energy continues to innovate and deploy its technology, the potential to transform the landscape of military energy generation and resilience is immense. By providing a robust, adaptable solution, CBC is positioned to play a crucial role in enhancing energy security and operational efficiency for the U.S. military.
