Large wind turbines for high energy needs.

Reliable energy for growing businesses, farms and facilities.

Yield.

WES wind turbines range from 80 kW to 250 kW nominal output. Depending on the model and location, they can generate between 150,000 and 600,000 kWh annually.

The exact yield depends on your site's location, wind profile, and surrounding structures. Want to find out what a WES turbine could generate on your land or business premises?

Built-in hoisting system

The WES turbine features a smart internal crane system that allows maintenance to be performed safely and efficiently on site. No need for expensive external cranes - even large components can be easily replaced without major logistical hassle.

Mechanical pitch control

A time-tested safety system. The blades automatically adjust their angle in high winds or power failure to protect the turbine and ensure smooth restarts once conditions stabilize. It's simple, proven, and robust.

Reusable rotor blades

Our rotor blades are made from long-lasting fibreglass-reinforced composites. While current recycling infrastructure is limited, the wind industry is advancing new techniques—like pyrolysis and chemical recovery—to repurpose older blades into useful materials like construction components and reinforced plastics.

Yaw-control system

Unlike smaller tail-steered turbines, the WES system uses active yaw control to continuously orient the rotor into the wind.

This motorized system adjusts based on wind direction, optimizing performance and protecting the turbine during extreme weather.

Extra large generator

At the heart of each turbine is a heavy-duty generator designed for efficiency and longevity. Oversized for durability and less stress, it converts wind into usable electricity even in lower wind conditions.

Solid, simple tower

The tubular tower provides the right height and structural stability to optimize yield while minimizing visual impact. Plus, the tower foundation is carefully engineered to ensure long-term performance – even on softer soil.

FAQ

What about noise and cast shadow?

The WES turbine runs quietly thanks to its slow rotation speed and optimized blade design. It also produces minimal shadow flicker, and we ensure all zoning rules and placement guidelines are met in your site analysis.

Is the WES turbine compatible with the grid?

Yes. WES wind turbines are grid-compatible and can be used in net metering or feed-in setups, depending on your country and energy provider. Our technical team will advise you on the most beneficial configuration.

How tall is the turbine?

Depending on the model and required energy output, WES turbines typically range from 25 to 40 meters in tower height. We select the right height based on your local wind profile to maximize return.

Can I combine this with solar panels or batteries?

Absolutely. Many clients choose to combine wind with solar or battery storage for a fully tailored energy system. We can help you design the right mix based on your usage patterns and long-term goals.

What if I need maintenance or repairs?

Thanks to the built-in hoist and modular design, most repairs can be done quickly on site. You’ll also get remote monitoring and proactive alerts through our SCADA system – plus guaranteed access to service and parts through Ecoways.
