# Portable Wind Turbines This Innovative Wind Turbine's Battery Captures Energy From the Wind By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2016-07-14 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/innovative-wind-turbine References: [geeky-gadgets](http://www.geeky-gadgets.com/drill-turbine-charges-your-device-on-the-move-12-07-2016/) & [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/electrothirst/drill-turbine-0) A company by the name of Electrothirst has gone about developing a spectacularly novel and groundbreaking contraption called the Drill Turbine, that is designed to function as an innovative wind turbine. What's great about this innovative wind turbine is the fact that it harnesses the natural power of the wind to harness and generate energy. This energy then goes towards keeping the [10,000 mAh lithium battery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trail-series) sufficiently juiced up. An additional bonus with the Drill Turbine is the fact that it is fitted with a pair of [orbital headlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wnd-helmet) capable of generating 90 lumens, making them ideal for night-time use. With its eco-friendly functioning and illuminating function, this innovative wind turbine is a great option for outdoor use. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 29% | Activity: 82% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Portable Wind Turbines:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the portable wind turbine market. - **Energy Harvesting:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the field of energy harvesting from natural resources. - **Eco-friendly Power Generation:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the eco-friendly power generation industry. ### Where This Applies - **Renewable Energy:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the renewable energy industry using portable wind turbines. - **Outdoor Gear:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the outdoor gear industry by incorporating portable wind turbines into products. - **Lighting Solutions:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the lighting solutions industry by integrating wind turbine-powered lighting. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Portable Wind Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Portable-Wind-Generator.md) - [Travel-Ready Wind Turbines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wind-turbine-generator.md) - [Honeycomb-Shaped Wind Turbines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bladeless-wind-turbine-design.md) - [Portable Energy Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-energy-generator.md) - [Single-Blade Offshore Wind Turbines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/singleblade-offshore-wind-turbine.md) - [Mast-Mounted Wind Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grain-blanc.md) - [Wind Turbine Compact Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blademade.md) - [Turbine-Based Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blademade-1.md) - [Self-Powered Mobile Towers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mobile-towers.md)
