In addition, Energetic Drives’ Direct Drive Generator technology allows optimum power generation over a much broader spectrum of wind speeds with a smaller generator footprint, and with greatly improved MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) rates.

Energetic Drives has also developed a proprietary wind turbine with no gearbox, using DC Permanent Magnetic Generation ranging from 10KW to 1.5MW. All of Energetic Drives’ technologies are engineered for use in new turbines or can be retrofitted to serve existing equipment.

This strategic addition is a key next step towards WindPower Innovations’ fulfilling its commitment to provide next generation solutions designed to minimize downtime, increase profitability for wind farm operators, and assist wind and solar projects to achieve compliance with current and future industry standards, while increasing output and efficiency.
