ThomasNet Industrial Newsroom - Mechanical Power TransmissionThomasNet Industrial Newsroom is a service of ThomasNet.comWind Power Appliance lessens building electricity costs.- June 16, 2008 Connected to building power supply, Windspire&174; vertical axis wind turbine offsets electricity use and, at times, runs electricity meter backwards. Styling helps unit blend into surroundings, while technology maximizes energy conversion, regardless of wind speed. Integrated, plug 'n produce(TM) design includes generator, inverter, wireless performance monitor, and tilt-up monopole. Unit can produce about 2,000 kWh of electricity in 12 mph average winds.
