Vertical Wind Turbine

Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

Peace of mind, top quality, and state of the art equipment. That's what you should expect when purchasing a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (V.A.W.T.) from us. The Century Wind Team combined with our research and manufacturing facilities possess the knowledge and experience to produce top-grade Wind Turbines backed by cutting edge technology using powerful research capabilities. Our Vertical Axis Wind Turbines have nine (9) international invention patents. Among them, four (4) patents are for the systems of large in-grid turbines, three (3) patents for product features and two (2) patents for methods.

CWE-V-P Series Aero foil-style vertical axis wind turbines (V.A.W.T.'s) possess a low wind speed start-up and achieve rated output capacity at approximately 22 mph. Vertical Axis Wind Turbines have unparalleled advantages over Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines in terms of lower rotation speed, lower noise, higher efficiency, and they are not influenced by wind directions. The CWE Vertical Axis Wind Turbines are well suited to rural, urban and remote locations for a wide variety of uses and they operate nearly silently.

CWE 300watt Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

The CWE 300watt Vertical Axis Wind Turbine is optimum for Battery Maintenance and lighting.
A cost saving solution to providing lighting at remote sites, this 300 watt Vertical Axis Wind Turbine is mounted to a street light in a remote location where Grid Power is not available.

The CWE 300 watt Vertical Axis Wind Turbine is also ideal on Farm sites where equipment batteries must be maintained through winter months and barn lighting is required.
