We all know that wind energy is one of the most reliable sources of renewable energy. But it has faced many a criticism by the environmentalists. Claims have been made time and again that the wind turbines not only cause a lot of noise pollution but also is dangerous for birds who find it difficult to detect the fast moving blades.

Helix Wind, a company devoted in making efficient wind turbines have introduced 2kW medium wind system and 5kW System which they claim generate less noise and are safer for birds and bats than any other existing wind turbine.

The vertical Savonious 2.0 and Savonious 5.0 have a unique patent pending design which empowers the turbine to convert wind power into energy in less than 5 decibels above the background noise. The noise that the turbine makes is similar to the noise generated when wind passes through a tree or a house.

Conventional horizontal wind turbines operate at up to ten times above the wind speed which is responsible for the piercing whistling sound near wind farms.

The highly reliable Low RPM Permanent magnet generator helps self start spinning at 5 mph up to 50 mph. The rugged steel and aluminum body of the Helical turbine ensures smooth power is generated even in the most turbulent wind situations without requiring speed controls.

Due to slow and controlled speed, the tough 3D modular blades appear as a solid mass than sharp blurring blades and can be easily detected by any bird in day or in the night. This is the reason why Helix claims its turbines to be safer for the wildlife and the environment.

A sustainable energy solution for commercial and home use, it can easily fit on your rooftop and comes with a 5 year limited warranty.
