Planning to buy a Turbine

Your own wind turbine
This section of the web site is all about the process involved in obtaining your own wind turbine. We assume you have read the introductory section, you've done some basic research into the matter and now you want to know how to proceed.

At Wind Energy (UK) Ltd, we don’t just know about the theory of wind power, we have also been through the process you are going through – information gathering, understanding unfamiliar terminology, making product comparisons and investigating grants.

The challenges we faced with installing a turbine at our home spurred us on to offer the benefit of our experiences and our partners to others intending to purchase a turbine. We can now offer you the benefit of our knowledge and experience. We can help in the following areas:

• Help sourcing with grants
• Explanation of Feed in Tariffs
• Help with finance
• Guidelines for planning applications
• Discussions with the national grid energy supplier
• Further details of the wind turbines we offer
