Solar Wind Energy Tower, Inc. Responds to Numerous Calls from Shareholders Interested in New Pilot Site Testing Results
ANNAPOLIS, MD, Oct. 05, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Solar Wind Energy Tower, Inc. (USOTC:SWET) (the "Company"), the innovator and creator behind the Solar Wind Downdraft Tower structures capable of producing abundant, inexpensive electricity to meet the world's increasing demand, responds to numerous shareholder calls and questions pertaining to the results of the pilot site testing.
In a previous, as well as yesterday’s press release, the Company reported that testing had been initiated and was ongoing. The schedule of course will be dependent on weather conditions at the pilot site.
The pilot site stack has been outfitted with the necessary professional monitoring and recording devices required by the Company’s meteorological consultants and the testing itself is under the direction and coordination of one of the consultants that is on-site.
The Company has also responded to inquiries regarding the pumping of the water to the top of the tower and the amount of energy required to complete that task effectively. As quoted by Ron Pickett, “Based on a very conservative approach, we originally calculated that approximately 11% of our energy produced would be needed for the pumping of the water. It is exciting now to validate through actual field testing that the energy consumption is less than 1% of the energy projected to be produced by the San Luis facility.”
An additional battery of testing at the site has just been completed, and those results are being verified and logged. Continued testing is scheduled for this upcoming week.
Ron Pickett commented, “Inasmuch as we are not able to share this test information ahead of full public disclosure, as a courtesy to our loyal stakeholders, the Company can report that the initial system checked out and performed as designed, and that the weather data both inside and outside the system was fully functional and consistently capturing, displaying, recording and comparing temperatures, relative humidifies, dew points and the resulting wind speed at 10 second intervals. Actual results will be compiled and contained in an official report generated by the consulting meteorologist.
That said, the pilot tower downdraft system proves without doubt what the expert consultants already knew, which is that hot/dry air confined inside the tower when infused with water immediately begins the evaporative process, resulting in colder air that falls at predictable speeds to the bottom of the tower and will exit through any opening toward air with the same ambient conditions of the air before the water infusion.”
It is the Company’s intent to share the final report, encompassing various performance aspects, as soon as it completed.
