Why Choose Windspire?
Windspire offers clean, renewable energy that can reduce your electricity bills, with key
advantages over other renewable energy systems:
Aesthetically Inspiring
Windspire was designed to be uniquely aesthetic and compatible for the areas where we
live and work. The low-profile, unobtrusive design blends in easily with the surrounding
environment. Mesmerizing and relaxing to watch, the Windspire is truly visually inspiring.
Virtually Silent
Windspire is nearly silent. According to an independent acoustic study by Summit
Engineering, the Windspire is "imperceptible" in a 10 mph wind, and 8.8 dB above
ambient in a 50 mph wind. Compare this to the 65 to 100 dB noise levels of many turbines
on the market!
Low Cost
Windspire is priced well below other renewable alternatives of the same rated capacity.
After deducting a 30% federal tax credit (available in the USA), and local rebates that are
available in some areas, your net cost could be as little as $7000.00 installed. The price
includes the poles, inverter, wireless performance monitor, and the hinged monopole, so
there are no expensive extras to buy.
Easy to Install
No cranes, no guy wires - the Windspire really is simple to install. Your installer will simply
pour a concrete foundation, assemble the unit on the ground, and raise the hinged unit
with a winch (or motor or vehicle). Once the foundation has set, the installation can be
completed in just a few hours. Our Plug 'n Produce system allows you to simply plug the
Windspire into your home or building like an appliance, or alternatively you can have it
hard-wired, to begin providing power.
No Maintenance
Zip. Zero. No regular maintenance. What could be more simple?
High Quality
Windspire uses a durable corrosion-protected steel and aircraft grade aluminum
construction, designed to operate for 20 years or more. With quality oversized bearings
combined with a very simple mechanical structure, it is sure to provide reliable operation
for years, even in high winds (up to 100 mph), snow and ice.
Clean, Abundant Renewable Energy
Wind power is from a clean, natural source that does not emit pollution of any kind. No
emissions to lower our air quality or exacerbate global warming; no nuclear waste to bury
away - just pure, clean wind. Wind will be a source of power as long as the earth orbits the
sun and we have night and day. Wind is infinitely renewable, and it's there for the taking.
Why waste wind?
Offset Global Warming
Wind is a source of power which doesn't require burning fossil fuels like coal, gas, oil, or
other hydrocarbon fuels. By drawing power from a clean source, you are offsetting the
need for power from dirty sources which emit greenhouse gases and contribute to the ill
effects of global warming, not to mention poor air quality at ground level.
Personal Independence from Grid Power and Grid Prices
Electricity rates have been steadily rising for the last few years. For many people, the
electricity bill is like paying a high rent on top of the mortgage. When temperatures hit
record highs and lows, energy bills and rates can skyrocket. Worse, blackouts have
shown the grid to be less reliable than most assumed. By adding your own source of
renewable wind energy, you hedge against the risk of rising electricity rates (the higher the
rates, the greater your benefit).
Savings on your Electricity Bill
When you supply your own power, you no longer need to buy as much electricity from your
utility. This means ongoing savings every month for 20 plus years.
Improved Local and National Security
In the big picture, many matters of national security revolve around our energy security,
namely fossil fuels that are frequently imported from foreign nations. By reducing your
need for fossil fuel power, you are reducing the nation's need, and thus taking one small
step towards easing tensions around many matters of national security.
Current Applications
Residential
Use one or more Windspires to power your home. Place them in the back yard, or display
them in front of your home. Line a path, driveway, or your entry, using Windspires as
power-generating pillars. Great for homes in the country, but also appropriate for many
suburban and urban settings.
Business
Set up an array of Windspires in front of your building to provide you with electricity. Use
this attractive form of renewable energy to visibly display your corporation's values and
environmental responsibility, while lowering your energy bills.
Kinetic Sculptures for Resorts, Hotels, Office Towers, etc.
A group of Windspires arranged artistically in an array, painted with custom colors, can
form a novel display of renewable energy that provides usable electricity, visual appeal,
and a strong message to passers-by. Take your outdoor display to a new level by
incorporating Windspires.
