Aeronautica Windpower's 750 Series wind turbines are more easily permitted, erected, serviced, and financed than larger turbines. Features include a low profile, ultra-low noise signature, Internet-ready SCADA system for remote access and viewing, gearbox isolation system to absorb shocks, Active Stall Regulation (ASR) to allow pitchable blades to be optimized for both low and high wind conditions, and highly efficient output. The 750kW wind turbine is built according to IEC 61400 guidelines.
