The Swift Wind Turbine was developed by Renewable Devices in Scotland. This team of engineers had a passion about providing safe, clean energy for everyone. The Swift system is the world’s first rooftop wind turbine with unique, patented technologies for unprecedented safe, efficient, and near silent operation. With installations worldwide, this design icon has been quietly generating clean energy for homeowners, community groups, and commercial customers, for over four years. The emphasis of the Swift design has been focused on safety, reliability, and ease of operation, alongside the high-performance of this innovative system. Unique technologies led to the filing of five international patents, which allow the Swift Wind Turbine to offer:
- Quiet, vibration-free rooftop operation
- Simple installation
- Safe, efficient and autonomous operation
- Visually appealing design
- Sustain, harm neutral design – allowing the Swift to become carbon and energy positive within four years
- Zoning – operates below maximum noise levels and eliminates the pole fall height restrictions
The Swift turbine is mounted on an aluminum mast with a minimum blade-roof clearance of approximately 2 feet. It is usually mounted at the highest point of a roof, in a position which benefits from maximum prevailing wind, but it will work effectively in almost any location. The Swift is designed to be both aesthetically pleasing and quiet.
The Swift turbine mounting brackets incorporate a damping system, specifically designed to absorb a wide range of frequencies. The patented diffuser minimizes turbine noise by preventing noises at the blade tip. In addition, the five bladed design allows for a slower speed of rotation to further reduce noise, making the Swift Wind Turbine one of the quietest wind systems. Now you can have a quiet vibration free energy generated right from your rooftop.
