Our mission is to unlock the potential of distributed wind energy as a source of clean, secure, and affordable electricity for communities and businesses by developing a quieter, smaller, more efficient turbine. Avocets patented virtual-shroud rotor and semi-shroud airfoil increase the turbines coefficient of power while reducing noise, leading to a cost-effective and less intrusive turbine that is ideal for use in commercial-scale distributed energy systems, either on its own or in combination with solar and storage for a robust and reliable local energy solution.
