Abstract:
Various embodiments of a solar wing are disclosed. A solar wing sail generates power from a series of parallel, spaced-apart solar rib assemblies, each assembly having a solar array mounted on top. A sail is formed of transparent material that surrounds the solar rib assemblies, forming an airfoil. The power generated by the solar wing sail can be used to charge batteries and operate onboard electronics.

Claim (Index 4):
A solar wing sail for generating electrical power on a sailing vessel, comprising:\n a transparent wing, comprising:\n a plurality of solar rib assemblies coupled to a mast, separated from each other by one or more predetermined distances, each of the plurality of solar rib assemblies comprising a respective photovoltaic array for generating the electrical power as each photovoltaic array is illuminated by light, wherein at least two of the plurality of solar rib assemblies comprises a mast hole for receiving the mast; and an electrical DC coupling device mounted to the mast hole, the electrical DC coupling device for providing a DC voltage generated by the photovoltaic array to a fixed location onboard the sailing vessel; and \n a transparent membrane coupled to at least some of the plurality of solar rib assemblies along a respective edge of the plurality of solar rib assemblies to form an airfoil.
