ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method and system for providing an energy gathering sheet to harness and provide energy to destinations, such as homes and businesses. The energy gathering sheet is configured to receive small wind energy gathering devices (e.g., in the micrometer to nanometer range), which are mounted on a single sheet for the purpose of creating efficient and clean energy to meet both small and large power demands. The single sheet of installable wind turbines may be loosely rolled or stacked to protect the integrity of the wind turbines, and are capable of being roiled out for efficient installation.
