Halo Energy, a maker of small-scale wind turbines for on-site generation, has acquired wind-turbine technology developed by Ogin. Halo Energy plans to incorporate this technology into its small-scale wind platform offering sub-10kW turbines.
The small scale wind turbines are suited for on-site generation for telecommunications towers, offshore oil & gas rigs, commercial and industrial facilities, and mobile power plants. Halo Energy is currently incorporating the Ogin technology into its existing 5kW turbine design and expects to have an operating unit by year-end which it will use for performance validation. Halo Energy's 5kW turbine will have a 3.5-meter diameter.
