Holy shit this makes me happy. Now do home versions that combine with solar.
I was thinking the same thing, how easily the two units could work together.
Have horizontal ones not been more efficient?
(ringblade and wind my roof for example)

I wonder if they consulted structural engineers. Putting multiple 1000 lb loads on roofs that weren’t designed for it doesn’t seem like a good business plan.
I think It’s safe to assume that an evaluation/inspection on the building is performed before installation.
Should be, but my comment is more along the lines of I doubt many buildings can take additional multiple 1000 lb loads.
Walls are made to support loads and TFA does say they are mounted on the edge so roof loads will be minimal
Not to be confused with edge lords
Commercial building like this have curtain walls. Curtain walls don’t support loads, the columns are the ones taking the load.
I’m not go worried about the load bit Zhou about vibrations.
Wind turbines vibrate, especially of you install them on turbulent airflow such as just on top of a roof. I would be worried that it would cause some long term damage to the structure.
