Another permanent magnet drive in the North

FD-ID comments on wind energy
Just checking the names of the visitors of this weblog I found Northern Power Systems in Vermont, Barre, USA. It seems that this company is now part of Distributed Energy Systems. Checking their website I found another wind turbine with a permanent magnet drive generator; the NorthWind 100. A brochure is available as well as a Technology Generation brochure.

Have a look at Distributed Energy Systems' website (as I just did) and find out what they produce.

Looking for more information on the NorthWind 100 I found an article about it on the website of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in the section Honor & Awards. Not bad !
