The Technology

Our technology partner Enercon, based in Germany, is the pioneer of the world's leading direct drive, variable speed wind technology. This new generation of wind turbines has many advantages over their conventional forerunners :-

quieter than conventional wind turbines
direct drive - no mechanical gearbox
variable speed - operate effectively at very low wind speeds
constant monitoring of prevailing wind direction
increased productivity, reliability and efficiency
competitive with conventional electricity costs

Enercon wind turbines have no gearbox or drive train, making them
much quieter than conventional gearbox machines
