Sauer Energy Unveils Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine
Sauer Energy's compact vertical-axis wind turbine is quieter and generates electricity at much slower speeds, making it great for business and residential use.
Sauer Energy is challenging the commonly held image of fields of giant white horizontal-axis wind turbines with their new prototype, a relatively compact vertical-axis wind turbine.
The Sauer Energy design is not the first vertical-axis wind turbine to hit the market, but it has some singularly intriguing features. Sauer Energy's use of a dimpled blade surface makes the vertical-axis wind turbine more efficient at capturing wind from all directions. This produces sufficient torque to allow electricity generation at much slower blade speeds. A mere 6 mph wind can turn the blades enough to produce power, while allowing the turbine to run much quieter than the larger horizontal-axis models. The slower speeds are also safer for our avian friends.
Two of the most obvious benefits of the Sauer Energy vertical-axis wind turbine are its size and lightweight carbon fiber composite construction. Compact and relatively unobtrusive, the vertical-axis wind turbine can be easily integrated onto rooftops of homes and businesses. This results in a cost effective alternative energy approach because it removes dependency on a larger municipal power grid.
The unique design features of the Sauer Energy vertical-axis wind turbine is likely to make it stand out in the burgeoning micro wind turbine market, especially for residential applications.

Wonderful goods from you, man. I have take into account your stuff previous to and you are just extremely wonderful. I actually like what you have obtained here, certainly like what you're stating and the way in which in which you say it. You're making it entertaining and you still care for to keep it sensible. I cant wait to read much more from you. That is really a wonderful website.

I never could find FAQ's. The site told me virtually nothing of the info I was looking for as a stockholder and a future customer. Is SENY a company created for the wind generator as its only product, or does it also include the half dozen or so other non wind-generating products? When I looked up filings I saw no eveidence of sales or income. In my 1st Email I directed you to a headline article regarding the dispute regarding Florida Power & Light's desire to erect several 200' tall towers on the barrier islands. I was hoping to find info that you could provide a practical alternative substitute to the props on the towers that the county commissioners could quickly read and use to rebut FPL.
I used to be on the FL Keys. I had a building with ten AC condensers on the roof about 30' high. The units had lousy aluminum condenser coils that the salty air ate thru quickly. The AC repairman had great difficulty detecting the odor to check for leaks because of the steady breeze. I now live an hour inland from the Indian River (big fishing country) and the fishermen are always moaning about the wind preventing them from going out.
A Romanian immigrant to the Keys Mfd wind generators using the the conventional props (maybe triple blades). He mounted 2 props about 10' apart on the single upright. He found that the wind power loss behind the front prop was a horizontal cone that ended just in front of the 2nd prop. The whole rooftop part weighed just under 100#. It seems to me that you might mount a few turbines in a row to increase the capture by the turbines?????????????? Harold Lee
