Affordable and Reliable Clean Energy for Farms

Nobody ever said that farming was easy, and today it is more true than ever that farmers must seek to maximise the use of their land as well as find ways to reduce costs and become more attractive suppliers to their key customers.

We all know that energy prices are going up, but only time will tell how far or fast, and that this uncertainty makes planning ahead very difficult.

Many farms in the UK however have a great untapped asset, which is the wind that blows across the land, often with negative effects.

Installing a small wind turbine however can change that, allowing you to;

Save the purchase cost of the energy that you generate for yourself and when you export your surplus energy back to the grid.
Have power from the wind, even when your grid connection has failed, or where there is no grid.
Supplement the power from the grid when your needs are greater than your connection capacity.

Most farms offer an ideal location for a small wind turbine so enter your postcode into our free wind speed checker to find out how much energy you could be generating each year from the wind.

The Iskra AT5-1 small wind turbine is ideally suited to installation onto farms;

The guyed tower is a very low cost alternative to the monopole towers that are typically used for urban installations, and has a much lower installation cost.
Segen offer tailored packages including off-grid and grid backup solutions, that are ideally suited to remote rural locations.
These solutions can include battery storage and hybrid solar PV and diesel generator options to provide a secure power supply in all circumstances.
Segen can offer substantial discounts on the installation of two or more turbines, where power needs are greater.
The AT5-1 turbine is the most efficient and cost effective small wind turbine in its class, ensuring that the maximum amount of energy is extracted from the wind.
The entire package has a design life of 20 years, and with only one short annual service, it will provide a long term return on investment that is hard to beat, no matter what happens to future energy prices.
