Renewable Energy Solutions Eco Whisper Turbine

The Eco Whisper Turbine features an intuitive blade design that is virtually silent. The turbine stands at 21 m high and the blade measures 6.5 m. The 20 kW electricity-producing wind turbine has a unique cowl/ring that prevents air from spilling off the blades. The wind hub and blade are made from aluminium and are therefore resistant to rust. If the turbine is placed in a good wind site it has the ability to generate 45,000 plus kWh per annum.

The device is said to have a number of advantages compared to comparable three-blade designs including: lower start-up speed; an advanced ability to collect wind, making it suitable for a large number of sites; Australian-made generator and inverter; no turn away losses; and blades contained in a central hub to minimise birdlife casualty.

Its silent operation and ability to operate in a range of wind conditions make it suitable for urban developments, commercial sites and agricultural applications. Suited to grid and non-grid connections, the turbine can be used for commercial sites, urban environments such as industrial parks, airports, community groups, universities, councils, ports and manufacturing facilities.
