COMPANY INFORMATION

VertAx Wind Limited was formed in 2007 out of Eurowind Developments Ltd with the objective of developing a multi-megawatt wind turbine generator for use specifically offshore. The company's aim is to substantially reduce the cost of offshore wind energy whilst re-establishing a wind turbine manufacturing activity within British industry and thus creating new 'Green Jobs' within the United Kingdom.

The company's strategy is to develop a design that is simple, robust and cost-effective, whilst moving away from traditional supply chains. Longevity, reliability, and low maintenance costs are key areas of consideration.

​

In order to achieve the necessary level of technical competence the company has engaged with a number of experts both at a corporate and individual level. This collective expertise will ensure the overall objectives are achieved and a reliable British product will contribute to meeting the United Kingdom's goal of reducing carbon emissions and producing electrical power from a renewable source of energy.
