Emanuele Buglielmino, CEO of Advanced Micro Turbines, introduces a micro-turbine developed as a spin-off from the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia. The micro-turbine, the size of a euro coin, generates up to 30 watts of local energy using compressed air, making it ideal for powering sensors, mobile devices, and PCs in remote areas. It exploits existing air pressure and flow, offering virtually free energy. The turbine is particularly useful for applications like pipeline integrity monitoring, where traditional energy sources are impractical. Overall, it provides a cost-effective solution for local energy generation.
