Southwest Windpower is the world’s largest producer of small wind generators (400 to 3000 watts). The 21-year old company has been a pioneer in the development of wind technology and has produced more than 120,000 generators that provide power to residential homes, remote cabins, telecom transmitters, offshore platforms, water pumping and sailboats. Southwest Windpower’s newest wind turbine, the Skystream 3.7, is the first fully-integrated wind generator designed specifically for the grid-connected residential market. Southwest Windpower distributes in more than 88 countries.
When Hap Ellis met the founder of Southwest Windpower, David Calley, David said: “I ask you to make a leap of faith that people will one day buy a power appliance like a dishwasher.” And that appliance would be the company’s Skystream turbine. No leap required! We loved the vision and believe this technology will become an icon for what it means to be green at the local residential and commercial level.
