Wind Turbines
With over 20 years of experience installing wind and solar throughout NZ and Pacific we have a wide range of wind turbines to suit your power needs.
Our wind turbines have been selected to suit New Zealand conditions and are very robust and warranted to winds over 200 km per hour, well over NZ wind speeds. They are quiet and easy to maintain. They have a design life of 25 years but with a small over haul significantly longer. They are therefore a very good property investment. We provide a range of domestic size from 2 kW to 20 kW. The average house IS UITED TO a 2 - 4kW turbine. We also supply a wide range of other sizes including smaller and larger where required.
See
the map for where we have fitted turbines and go to Links tab for more info on individual turbines.
COMBINED WIND AND SOLAR SYSTEM
In many situations the optimum solution may be a combined wind and solar which evens out the power so you have a consistent supply of energy without large peaks and troughs. Research I have conducted on Matiu-Somes Island with an installation of off grid wind and solar (published) shows the clear benefit of combining wind and solar. The benefits being: a smaller wind turbine, solar array and battery bank. Also, less reliance on diesel or mains back-up.
Let Tony design your system and give you everything you need to start producing your own electricity delivered to your location.

Rutland, 50 - 800W - UK
Rutland made in UK small wind turbine for mini systems from electric fencing to top up batteries for batches and specialist radio or light houses, monitoring systems and boats, aids to Navigation, lighting etc.
Various models power output
100W to 800W.
THINAIR Wind Turbine, 2 kW - NZ
Thinair is a smaller single bladed wind turbine made in New Zealand for the New Zealand environment, the advantages include noise reduction, reliability and the ability to operate in high winds. Power output: rated at various models power output 2kW to 3kW.
"Ridgeblade" roof top inconspicuous wind turbine, made in Canada
"Ridgeblade" roof top inconspicuous wind turbine made in Canada, power output various models 2kW to 5kW, the only wind turbine suitable for built up environments, sits on a roof ridge, in a capsule internal blades that enhances the wind hitting the roof to generate higher levels of power.
Enair Small turbines 2 - 60 kW - Spain
Various models power output
2kW-60kW.
Wind turbine is a robust, small scale wind turbine, with low maintenance suitable for medium to large house, farms or telecommunication sites in either on grid, maintained on grid and off grid installations. Enair wind turbines are manufactured in Spain and are high quality wind turbine that control their speed by a patented variable pitch control mechanism. Continues generating and warranted to wind speeds of over 200 kph.
PSW, 10 - 20 kW - German made
"PSW" German made wind turbines with power output 10 to 20kW are are highly efficient and compact. Excellent for Farms, agricultural premises, industrial and manufacturing companies.
The mechanical power is transmitted by a drive shaft to the base of the mast where different devices can be driven:
- electricity generation - house/grid tie
- excess electricity gets fed into the grid (depending on local regulations / feed in tariffs)
- heating using an electric heat pump / electric boiler
- customer-specific application (eg. direct drive of a water pump, air compressor, etc.)
Intelligent micro-processor control system
The micro-processor control system monitors and controls the whole system in order to reliably achieve maximum efficiency of all devices under all wind conditions. Monitoring is possible.
WES, 50 - 250 kW - Netherlands
WES, Netherlands made, power output various models from
50 kW to 250kW
