Although Hot Watt Solar is a distributor of these items in both rural and urban areas, the primary installation area for most of our clients is low wind, urban areas. Since a large portion of this area is suburbia, we have opted to present you with the vertical axis wind turbines because they take up much less space, will operate at low wind speeds and work extremely well in turbulent wind areas. They are also bird friendly. We have a couple of links set up for you with wind speed maps. Check out the links page.
The Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) converts wind energy to electrical power. The VAWT is an omni-directional low wind-speed generator that may be easily installed practically anywhere with good wind exposure. The VAWT is seen as a solid object as the rotational speed increases, making it visible to birds.
