<strong>Building a low-cost wind-turbine made out of wood is possible! Help us buidling and testing the first model in Madagascar, a country where 95% of the population lack access to electricity. The adapted plans will then be available for anyone, anywhere in the world. A first prototype has been build by students of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. Today, they work with a Swiss-based NGO - CEAS. Together, we will set up the first wind turbine "made in Madagascar". But we want this low-cost wind-turbine to be available for anyone!</strong></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Built by local craftsmen, this wood-turbine is simple, strong and affordable. It will enable schools, hospitals and families to have access to a sustainable form of off-grid electricity.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Based on open source plans, this turbine will need material costing about 1500 Euros.</p>

<p>
<strong><em>7 out of 10 people </em></strong></p>
<p>
in Subsaharian Africa lack access to electricity.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
<strong><em>30% </em></strong>of the health centers, and schools in Africa have to make do with no electricity at all.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
<strong><em>8 out of 10 people</em></strong> in Africa use wood to heat their household and to cook.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
<strong>Over 4 million people</strong> die prematurely from illness attributable to the household air pollution from cooking with solid fuels.</p>

Waar dient de collecte voor
<p>
We will first adapt and test a prototype based on the work of the team of prof. Abhari and Gawlikowska from the <a href="http://www.lec.ethz.ch/" target="_blank">LEC lab</a> based at the Swiss Federal Institute of technologies. Another model will then be built in Madagascar and set up in a rural village. Once perfected, the model will be shared with local craftsmen. It will also be shared online through the online plateform www.howtopedia.org.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
The wood-turbine will then be ready to be built anywhere in Madagascar and in the world.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Your money will finance :</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
R&D 6'000.- Euros</p>
<p>
The building of the first model in Madagascar 10'000.- Euro</p>
<p>
The training of local craftsmen 3'000.- Euro</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
The remaining costs will be covered by our charity. In case we get more money, we will finance more wood-turbine for other villages in Madagascar. So go on, join us and together, let's create a wind of change!</p>
