Basic Information

Double the size, double the power, the Helix S594 is designed to deliver. A bigger platform for applications requiring more power, the S594 continues producing through all wind speeds and conditions. Turbulent gusty wind? High speeds? Rapid changes in direction? Our patent pending design efficiently and safely captures the wind's power across a broader range of conditions than traditional HAWTs or other VAWT designs.
