Key Factors
Windside turbines can be safely placed in harsh environments, like Antarctica and Sahara desert, as well as in the middle of densely populated urban areas.
KNOW HOW
Windside has been manfacturing turbines and accessories for over 30 years and turbine systems have been sold to over 40 countries around the world. Throughout the existence of the company, testing and product development has been an important part of the business. The over 30 years journey is a guarantee to our customers of very deep know how of wind turbines in different applications and different environments.
SAFE
Windside turbine can stand up to storms and doesn’t have a freezing problem and is therefore safe to people and the surrounding environment.
You don’t need to stop the turbine during storms instead it can be left rotating and producing energy. Because of the unique design there is no fear that blades would come off lying around nor is there a problem with flying ice chunks.
QUIET
Winside turbine is totally silent because the rotation speed of the vanes never exceeds the wind speed. Because of this the turbine can be placed in the middle of residential areas.
EFFICIENT
The efficiency is based on the turbines ability to take advantage of low wind speeds (even under 3 m/s). Depending on the size of the turbine it can produce energy in as low winds as 1 m/s.
Windside turbines don’t need to be stopped during storms like propeller type turbines. Windside can be left rotating and allow it to convert these high winds into energy.
Due to the unique vane construction Windside wind turbines are able to utilize wind from all directions. Unlike the conventional propeller type turbines, that are constantly repositioning themselves towards the wind, Windside Spiral Vanes always reach the wind at the right angle and therefore Windside can utilize any gust of wind any direction.
Because of these three facts, Windside wind turbines produce energy minimum 50 % more than the traditional turbines. This has a huge impact on the annual production.
RELIABLE
Windside Wind Turbines are manufactured of high quality durable materials. They have been built to function in extreme conditions and to meet the requirements of the most demanding professional use in the harshest of environments. Windside turbines can stand snow, frost, heat, humidity, corrosion and sand and therefore they are in use in some harshest climates in the world, like Antarctica, Sahara Desert and Pacific Ocean.
LOW MAINTENANCE COST
Windside turbines require minimum maintenance. There is no gear box or adjustment mechanics that are sensitive to failure. The only service needed is the lubrication of the bearings. Using automatic lubrication system the turbine can be left alone for several years.
ELEGANT PIECE OF ART
On top of all the superior features Windside wind turbines are like a piece of art and elegant to watch. Many architects have noticed this and that is why Windside turbines can be seen in many parks and public buildings.
