Less is more. 

This principal drives our engineering team to create state of the art wind turbines with elegant designs and fewer moving parts than conventional turbines.  By minimizing wearing parts in the load path and maximizing efficiency over the full range of operating conditions, the Northwind 100 is a technological masterpiece with its innovative gearless design and best in class energy capture.  What this means for your application is more energy, less maintenance, and higher reliability!

“The Northwind 100’s  high performance and reliability can be attributed to three main technological advances: an innovative direct drive/gearless configuration, a high efficiency permanent magnet generator design, and an advanced power converter system.  Northern prides itself on taking innovative approaches to providing cost effective solutions for our customer’s renewable energy needs.”
