Envertech is coupling this blade technology with new permanent magnet generator technology to be able to offer wind turbine products, which will result in systems capable of generating more energy over any given period of time under ambient wind conditions, the company said.

Richard Steinke, CEO of WSR, said: “Since Wind Sail Receptor is focused on developing large wind turbine systems in the megawatt range, we are pleased to have Envertech as a licensee to manufacture the smaller systems. This will allow us to bring our advanced blade technology to a broader customer base.”

Gary Benninger, CEO of Envertech, said: “The ability of the WSR blade to generate high levels of torque at reduced rotational speeds while maintaining stability over a broad range of wind speeds is the perfect match for our new generator technology. The combined system will be a winner right out of the box, and will quickly demonstrate this fact through lower energy costs and quicker paybacks.”

Envertech is currently conducting product development testing and evaluation of small wind turbine technologies with plans to launch production later this year.
