Helix Wind Vertical Axis Wind Turbines
View the Product Brochure »
Helix Wind is a paradigm breaking distributed generation technology platform. Previous technologies designed to produce electric energy from the wind were focused exclusively on power efficiency and output, ignoring primary consumer concerns blocking widespread adoption, which include: visual impact (aesthetics), restrictive zoning and permitting (primarily height restrictions), and lack of access to wind information. HelixWind will revolutionize the small wind industry by overcoming these obstacles and providing cost effective residential and commercial wind energy systems.
Value Proposition
Helix Wind manufactures products for the distributed power generation industry that respond to customers' concern for global warming and the threat of limited energy supplies, and enables the potential for fossil fuel independence for homes and businesses by utilizing an inexhaustible and abundant natural resource, the wind.
Helix Wind's differentiating advantages include:
