Helix Wind is an elegant solution for home and small business owners.
Powerful enough to supply your needs yet harmonious with the
environment, the strength of the wind is captured by our unique and
highly efficient vertical blade design.
Inexpensive, reliable, simple, the hallmarks of the Helix system make
it the best choice for low wind speed residential and commercial
applications. The Savonius turbine based design catches wind from all
directions creating smooth powerful torque to spin the electric
generator. Mounted up to 35 feet high, in winds as low as 10 mph the
Helix system creates electricity to power your home or business.
How it works: As the wind blows the long helical blade scoops catch
wind from all directions forcing it through the turbine. The turbine
generator is connected directly to your home and as electricity is
generated your home is powered. If the wind isn?t blowing your home is
powered by the energy grid as usual. If the wind is blowing strongly
then your energy produced can exceed your energy consumed and,
depending on your local utility, your meter can spin backwards rolling
back your energy bill.
