Viryd 8000
Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine
The powerful and robust Viryd 8000 delivers the lowest Cost of Energy (COE) of any small wind turbine on the market today:
- Initial capital costs up to 20% less than comparable sized wind turbines
- As much as 10% more energy produced per year
- Lower ongoing maintenance costs
- A safer and more attractive wind turbine
The Viryd 8000 utilizes the latest award-winning NuVinci® technology to create a low cost, high performance, attractive wind turbine for home or small business use. In most parts of the U.S., the Viryd 8000 will generate more than enough electricity to power the average home and could TOTALLY eliminate the electric bill. It is an attractive system, that is relatively easy to install, and virtually maintenance free. It is a wonderful machine to see operate, because the terrible "furling" associated with most other small wind turbines has been fully eliminated, while maintaining the highest level of safety and reliability which an industry leader like Viryd must deliver.

Typical Residential Installation | |
The prototype version shown on the left is operational in North Texas. The prototype unit shown is considerably larger and longer than the anticipated size for the production version because it contains a considerable amount of instrumentation for use in field testing. On the right is a simulation showing how a production unit might look in a residential installation. |
