Windspire is a low-cost, easy-to-install wind
power appliance that provides a safe and attractive method for harnessing power
from the wind. At only 30 feet tall and 2 feet wide, Windspire is safe for birds
and people, and is distinguished by its sleek propeller-free design, silent
operation, rugged construction, simple installation and affordable pricing.
Designed for operation where we live and work, it sells for $3,995.00 and comes
complete with the inverter, poles, and an installation kit.
PacWind's Delta 2 produces an average of 5kw, but
if winds of 29mph are present it can produce up to 10kw. I am standing on the roof
of our building which overlooks the Torrance Airport, there is a lot of noise
pollution during the day from vehicle traffic, helicopters/airplanes and work
projects down below. I am proud that our Turbine is completely silent and dos not
contribute to the daily noise pollution in the city that I love. Please see us at

This video clip is an extract from coverage of
the Swift turbine on the BBC's Newsnight programme in July 2006, and clearly shows
the acoustic supression technology in operation.
The rooftop Wind Energy System incorporates
safety features which exceed all the British, European and North American safety
standards for wind energy systems of this class. Renewable Devices leads the
market in passive safety and fail-safe technologies.
