Gaia-Wind 11kW- Farm Wind Turbine
Well suited as a farm wind turbine, home wind turbine, or business wind turbine.
The Gaia-Wind 11kW wind turbine is specifically designed to optimize performance in areas with low to moderate annual wind speed regimes (10-17mph). The turbine’s oversized rotor will allow it to capture up to 80% more energy than other similarly rated machines. This significantly enhances project economics and maximizes the return on investment. Because of its constant speed blade rotation, the Gaia-Wind turbine is the most quiet wind turbine in its class. The Gaia-Wind turbine is well suited as a farm wind turbine, home wind turbine, business wind turbine, and commercial wind turbine.
Performance you need, when you need it
The Gaia-wind turbine has been in operation for over 20 years, and can be found in over 500 sites worldwide. It has a tried and true design with proven reliability, time and time again. By choosing in a Gaia-Wind turbine, you are investing in a 10 year record of reliability, and over 20 years of Danish innovation and technology.
Reduced Energy Costs
With energy prices predicted to rise dramatically over the next few years, generating and using your own electricity greatly reduces your energy bills and dependence on utility companies.
Captures 80% more energy
The turbine’s oversized rotor will allow it to capture up to 80% more energy than other similarly rated machines.
Rigorously Tested Design
This 11kW wind turbine benefits from more than 20 years of Danish design experience. It is rigorously tested and approved by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
Faster Payback
High energy production means earlier payback on your investment,and greater earnings.
Gaia-Wind Small Wind Turbine Features
High Energy Yield
The oversized blades allow it to capture up to 80% more wind energy than other wind turbines in its class, providing earlier payback and greater earnings.
Long Track Record
Gaia-Wind Turbines have a long track record of performance. Over 500 Gaia-wind turbines have been installed worldwide, with a combined operational history of more than 1500 years.
ULTRA-QUIET Machine
The design of the Gaia-Wind makes this machine an incredibly quiet wind turbine over a full range of wind speeds. Its steady rotation reduces irritation and offers greater site options for planning turbine locations. The Gaia-Wind 11kW is the quietest machine in its class.
Triple Safety System
The three levels of braking mechanisms creates blades that never over-speed or run out of control. This means reduces repair costs and ensures a long life.
Clean, Green Energy
The Gaia-Wind 11kW wind turbine generating 30,000kWh of green electricity per year will offset around 17 tons of CO2 emissions. This is enough to erase the carbon footprint of the average four person household.
