Wind Turbines - Other renewable options

It may be that your requirements and location mean that to just to install a VAWT is not the best solution and that other technology may give better options instead of, or perhaps in conjunction with, a VAWT.

Alvesta Energy also supply Solar Electricty Panels and Biodigesters. For more information please visit the Alvesta Ltd main site www.alvestaltd.com

A brief overview of the other technologies follows:

Solar Electricty:

Solar electricty is produced by Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Panels taking the power of the Sun and converting it in to electricity which can be used within yourproperty or exported back to the grid.

Key Benefits

  • Reduce your carbon footprint
  • Reduce your electricity bills
  • Earn an incone via Government Feed-in-Tariff scheme
  • Sell any excees electricty back to the grid

Bio Gas Generators:

This is a dual tank Alvesta bio-gas generator (biodigester) which produces methane under pressure from a range of organic material including sewage, kitchen waste, garden waste, paper, cardboard, animal slurry and grass cuttings. The system produces methane with grey water and dry compost as by-products. It can replace a septic tank or sewage treatment plant.

The methane produced can be used to fuel cooking appliances, burnt to produce heat or even converted to electricity via a gas turbine.  The water can be taken directly for irrigation through a hydroponic system and the compost is ready to use and clear of all pathogens.
