Claims7
A portable renewable energy generator comprising:
- a movable platform, said movable platform adapted for one of towing and transport to a remote area;
- a redundant renewable energy source generator including a wind energy extraction device, said redundant renewable energy source generator configured for transport on said movable platform, wherein said wind energy extraction device is rotatable about a connection to said moveable platform;
- and
- a battery system operably connected to said redundant renewable energy source generator, said battery system configured to store electrical energy generated by said redundant renewable energy source generator.
A method for production of continuous power from a renewable energy source, the method comprising:
- configuring a mobile platform for one of towing and transport to a remote area;
- disposing a redundant renewable energy source generator including a wind energy extraction device on said movable platform, wherein said wind energy extraction device is rotatable about a connection to said moveable platform;
- and
- disposing a battery system on said mobile platform, said battery system operably connected to said redundant renewable energy source generator, said battery system configured to store electrical energy generated by said redundant renewable energy source generator.
