The Home Energy Solution - Always Turning, Always Generating Energy.
Why was it necessary to redesign the turbine? With 90% of North America’s actual wind resources (class 4) below 9 mph on average, it was essential to develop a technology capable of starting-up in wind speeds as low as 2 mph and remaining operational through 45mph (traditional turbines do not begin turning before 7.5 mph and shutdown by 29 mph to protect the their gearing systems). It is this greater capture and conversion of available wind energy that enables the Honeywell Wind Turbine to provide such a meaningful percentage of a home’s energy needs.
The Honeywell Wind Turbine’s Power Blade System creates energy at the blade tips, rather than the complicated central gear of a traditional turbine. By removing the resistance of the mechanical gear, the Honeywell Wind Turbine is far more efficient, less expensive to own and operate and creates energy across a much broader range of wind speeds.
