VAWT - the design of a vertical axis wind turbine provides a series of benefits and advantages that cannot be matched by many traditional, horizontal windmill style turbines.
A quiet wind turbine
The giromill wind generator configuration rotates and operates almost whisper silently [between 27dB and 37dB].
Low speed wind generator The Megawind vertical axis wind turbine gathers the maximum amount of power possible from wind speeds as low as 2 m/s.
Generating power from turbulent and gusty winds The Megawind VAWT, vertical axis wind turbine operates much more efficiently than a traditional horizontal windmill style turbine in gusty and turbulent winds.
Slow giromill rotation. A vertical axis wind turbine rotates at a lower speed, becoming more visible and therefore safer to birds.
