The SolWind Tree addresses safety risks and inefficiencies in increasing urban renewable energy adoption by combining solar, wind, AI and IoT technologies. The SolWind Tree consists of a wind turbine and solar panels that enable 24-hour renewable energy generation. Its movable arm can flip the solar panels to ensure safety in strong wind conditions.
• Equipped with USB ports for charging mobile devices and dedicated stations for electric vehicles, all powered by clean energy.

• Adjustable Solar Panels can be adjusted manually based on weather conditions or automatically for 360° tracking to optimize energy capture.

• Real-Time Meteorological Data Collect wind speed, temperature, and sunlight intensity to enhance energy productivity.
