Forgen Vertical Axis Wind Turbines

Forgen wind turbines are designed for use in harsh environments, where other wind turbines can't last the course. Well-engineered sealed bearings, a simple yet robust construction and an efficient, carefully-balanced generator combine to make a machine that is dependable, yet effective. All electrical components are encapsulated and the unit is virtually maintenance free. There are no slip rings to cause interference against electrical equipment. The outlet supply cable to the battery cannot become entangled. There are no separate blades and the unit is vibration free and silent in operation.

Vertical axis wind turbines of this type give lower power outputs than similarly sized horizontal axis turbines - but for remote power solutions where dependability is more important than sheer power, they are the bees knees. Use a Forgen 500 for lighter loads, and a Forgen 1000 where your power needs are a bit greater. For a truly bombproof solution, use the Forgen 1000 with side bearing.
