Not even remotely a turbine, as I see it.

Still, probably a more palatable description than the more apt:
"field of quivering electro-penises."

Re: [MBZ] Bladeless Wind Turbines - wave of the future?

It's a bad description.

"Bladeless turbines" of the type pictured capture energy from the wind by 
creating vortices that induce an oscillation in the structure. This oscillation 
drives an alternator.

Though they are lighter and cheaper, they are less efficient at capturing wind 
energy than traditional blade designs.

I don't know much about it myself, but this article seems to be a better one:

[MBZ] Bladeless Wind Turbines - wave of the future?

https://greenerideal.com/guides/renewable-energy/bladeless-wind-turbines-the-future-of-wind-energy/The
Upsides of Bladeless Wind Turbines

Bladeless turbines are *much quieter* than their blade-based counterparts.
They have no gearboxes or other moving parts that can create noise.
Additionally, because there are no blades, there is no risk of bird or bat
collisions, which is a significant problem with traditional turbines.

They are *less expensive to maintain* than traditional bladed turbines.
Bladeless wind turbines have no moving parts that can wear out over time.
Additionally, bladeless turbines *can be made smaller* than traditional
ones without sacrificing power output, which makes them more suitable for
use in urban areas.
Related: China's largest wind farm still too Small

Another promising aspect of bladeless turbines is their *increased
efficiency*. Traditional turbines typically have efficiency levels around
40-45%, while bladeless turbines have been shown to boost efficiency levels
as high as 60%. This increased efficiency comes from bladeless turbines’
ability to capture low-pressure air pockets that traditional turbines
cannot reach.

Finally, bladeless turbines have a much smaller environmental impact than
traditional turbine technologies. They don’t require concrete foundations
or access roads, and we can completely recycle them at the end of their
lifespan.
