Bowie State University Physics Professor Mikhail Goloubev has earned the university its first patent with a wind turbine that is cheaper and more environmentally friendly in comparison to similar power generating resources.
According to a release, Goloubev and recent graduate Joshua Brown’s turbine technology can generate power with less wind than typically needed from larger instruments, and with eco-friendly recyclable raw materials.
“Although many people may support the idea of the low-cost, energy to power their homes, the “not in my background” mentality makes the idea of a large-scale power facility unattractive. “No one would ever accept a power plant, polluting the air and the environment, around private houses, so clean energy is best for the environment and communities,” said Dr. Goloubev.”
This is awesome, and the nay sayers say HBCUs are not relevant in todays day and age. Really, on the contrary HBCUs are still leading the way
