Pfister Energy offers a wind power energy solution to help businesses offset increased demands and escalating costs of electricity. This sustainable and renewable energy system is able to generate and distribute electricity at a wide variety of locations and industry-types in the northeast.

Pfister Energy specializes in building-integrated vertical axis wind turbines. These lightweight turbines are easily integrated into any building's architecture. They work well in both fractured urban wind environments and in low-wind regimes. The turbines capitalize on the effects of a building's architectural wind patterns on and around buildings.

Right now, growth of wind energy is being driven by the commitment from many industrialized nations, including the United States, to reduce greenhouse gases. The cost of wind energy has gradually fallen, as technology has improved.

New Jersey¡¯s Clean Energy Program is promoting the use of wind power through education and financial incentives making wind power more affordable and cost effective. Now you can invest in the best-performing equipment to realize substantial energy cost savings as well as environmental benefits through the use of the cleanest forms of energy.


How does a Wind Turbine work?
Wind is created by the unequal heating of the Earth's surface by the sun. The wind is slowed dramatically as it brushes the surface of the Earth, however, the power in the wind may be five times greater at the height of a 40-story building than the breeze on your face.

Wind turbines are positioned on top of buildings or on high poles to ¡°collect¡± these higher winds. The wind turns the blades or ¡°rotors¡± of the wind turbine, which spin a shaft, which connects to a generator. The generator converts the rotational movement into electricity at medium voltage. A transformer then increases the voltage to make storage and transmission of your power easier and less prone to power loss.

Whether the wind is blowing at 6 mph or 135 mph, the omni-directional wind turbine is designed to align itself with the direction of the wind and wind speed to maximize power output.

 

Who can use Wind Energy?
If your business or facility is using more than 1 million-kilowatt hours of electricity annually and you are concerned about rising electrical usage and costs, wind energy may be an option for you.

Typical wind energy customers include:
• Commercial, municipal and industrial users who pay the highest rates of electricity
• Remote locations and communities where the cost of energy is extremely high
• Businesses and communities where diesel generators supply electricity

Let Pfister Energy determine if your location and wind regime (the pattern of your winds) make you a candidate.


Where can Wind Turbines be installed?
Wind turbines can be installed as a single unit or in multiples, as a ¡°farm¡±, to generate even more power.

Typical east coast sites include: 
• Urban, suburban, rural, remote and off-grid communities
• Rooftop or ground installations
• Coastal or inland locations

 

What Difference Can the Wind Make?
The sidebar lists 25 facts about wind energy that you may be surprised to learn. To summarize, wind energy is a fuel of the future that is ready for implementation in New Jersey and the surrounding area today: 
• Wind energy makes a real contribution to our energy needs
• Wind energy delivers real economic benefits.
• Wind energy is an environmentally friendly renewable energy option
• Wind energy is very cool


Pfister Energy can help design and install a complete wind Distributed Generation (¡°DG¡±) system that generates and distributes renewable energy at fixed, long-term rates, directly back to you.
