Free design files for the world's first icosahedron-frame VAWT. Academic research, classroom education, and grassroots fabrication โ download, build, and share your results.
From university labs to rooftop workshops โ these are real people turning open-source design files into working turbines. Your build could be next.
Student team replicated GW600 for aerodynamic research. Confirmed Cp=0.31 in wind tunnel โ exceeding published specs. Results submitted to ISES 2026.
Community workshop built GW1200 using locally sourced steel and 3D-printed node connectors. Now powering LED lighting for a rural community center.
PhD research on urban wind harvesting. GW600 deployed on campus rooftop alongside conventional anemometers for 6-month comparative climate data study.
STEM class project โ students fabricated GW600 over one semester. Presented at regional science fair. Three students pursuing renewable energy degrees.
Weekend hackathon build using laser-cut DXF panels and FDM-printed connectors. Fully operational in 3 days. Build log published on Instructables.

Submit Your Build โWe collect verified community builds and feature them here. Send us photos, specs, and a short description โ we'll add your project to the global map and send you a GeoWind maker certificate.
The same open design files serve very different builders โ from research labs to rooftop workshops.
Universities and research institutions use GeoWind's design files as a reproducible platform for wind energy, aerodynamics, and urban climate research.
From high school STEM to university engineering โ GeoWind provides a real-world renewable energy project with open documentation and community support.
Makers, hackspaces, and community groups build GeoWind turbines for off-grid power, community energy projects, and pure maker satisfaction.
