I really doubt this technology or even seems fraud to me. Energy is extracted from momentum change in air. Now one can put a diffuser which is more or less like a frustum with the propeller at the end with smaller radium of the frustum so that it catches larger area and which gains velocity as area reduces (tricky). Here you don't have anything in front of the propeller and they have put cowl after the fan...hell why are they worried of wind after the fan...u r not extracting any energy out of it anyways...thats stupid Stator is something that help align the flow over rotor so that you have smooth flow, when u have multistaged turbines. why does any1 to spend any1 on stator.

The upper limit of power available from wind is known: 59 percent. "Normally wind turbines lose up to 39.7 percent of potential energy because wind not only flows through the blades, but is also directed away from the turbine." That is how turbines extract power: the change of momentum from the change in direction. This is basic physics, people. These people are scam artists looking to extract your money more efficiently. You might as well invest in deposed African dictators. Doesn’t ANYONE research these wild claims? The upper limit of power available from wind is known: 59 percent.
