Devin: What is your superpower?

Dr. Daniel: If I believe in something, I’ll do it.

Clean energy often feels like the domain of massive corporations and sprawling rural installations. But Flower Turbines, led by CEO and Founder Dr. Daniel Farb, is bringing wind power innovation to urban spaces, making it more accessible and efficient than ever before.

At the heart of this transformation is what Daniel calls the “cluster effect” or “bouquet effect.” This patented technology allows small wind turbines to enhance each other’s performance when placed together. “Each turbine that you add to a group makes the whole group perform better,” Daniel explained during today’s episode. “If you have two turbines, they perform 50 percent better than if you had two separate ones… Four turbines, it’s double the amount of power.”

This unique capability doesn’t just improve efficiency—it makes wind energy viable in more places, from urban rooftops to residential neighborhoods that typically couldn’t accommodate traditional large-scale turbines. Daniel’s tulip-shaped designs are compact, quiet, and visually appealing, making them a perfect fit for densely populated areas.

Flower Turbines is also scaling beyond technology development into project financing. The company recently launched a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign via Honeycomb Credit, raising $250,000 in a single week. The campaign aims to fund larger installations of these turbine clusters, offering investors the opportunity to earn dividends from specific green energy projects. “This is the first time that it’s available for wind,” Daniel said, emphasizing the importance of democratizing access to clean energy investment.

The urgency of this work is clear. Federal subsidies for renewable energy are set to expire soon, making cost-effective technologies like Flower Turbines’ cluster effect essential for the industry’s future. “What we’re doing is reducing the cost of electricity at the point of use,” Daniel noted, highlighting the practical benefits of deploying turbines where energy is consumed.

This innovative approach not only helps Flower Turbines expand its impact but also provides everyday people with a meaningful way to support and profit from the transition to clean energy.

  3. Daniel highlighted the importance of developing technology that works without relying on subsidies.

  4. Regulated crowdfunding allows investors to earn dividends from specific green energy projects.

  5. Daniel’s superpower, persistence, helped him overcome early financial challenges to build Flower Turbines.


How to Develop Persistence As a Superpower

When asked about his superpower, Daniel described persistence as his defining quality. “If I believe in something, I’ll do it,” he said, reflecting on his commitment to Flower Turbines. He also highlighted the importance of resilience during tough times, sharing that persistence often requires faith. Whether facing financial uncertainty or the challenges of scaling a new technology, Daniel’s steadfast belief in his mission has been the cornerstone of his success.

Illustrative Story:

In the early days of Flower Turbines, Daniel often faced financial uncertainty while growing the company. He recalled authorizing purchases for inventory, not knowing if there would be enough money the following week. Despite these nerve-wracking moments, he relied on faith and persistence to move forward. His ability to endure those challenges enabled him to raise funds, develop over 30 patents, and establish Flower Turbines as a leader in small-scale wind energy.

Tips for Developing the Superpower:

  • Cultivate self-discipline through activities that challenge you physically or mentally, such as sports or academics.

  • Set clear goals to maintain focus during challenges.

  • Develop resilience by embracing tough times as opportunities for growth.

  • Practice faith in your vision, even when the path forward is unclear.

  • Learn to balance persistence with flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances.

By following Daniel’s example and advice, you can make persistence a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.

Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!
