We have two different products ranges for boat and yacht owners, the horizontal axis LE-300 Marine and LE-450 wind generators plus the vertical axis LE-v50 and LE-v150 marine wind generators. All are designed and precision manufactured in the UK.
As well as our wind turbines, we supply best-in-class Solara marine solar panels appreciated for their ultra-high power output and salt-resistant, durable construction.
Ideal for ‘live-aboards’ and canal boats, the LE-300 Marine and LE-450 horizontal axis wind generators will keep your batteries charged whether you’re out on the high seas or moored up and away from your boat. These small wind turbines have a 1m rotor diameter, are manufactured in our UK factory and are considered more powerful than similar sized competitors.
LE-300 Marine is considered the best value wind charger for yachts and sailing boats with the lowest cost per watt according to Practical Boat Owner magazine, while the LE-450 is the most powerful small wind turbine with a 1m rotor, able to provide meaningful power levels at everyday wind speeds of 5-8m/s (11-18mph.)

“As I write it is blowing 25 knots and I can hardly hear the LE-300 sitting inside the saloon. It is so quiet we often have to look up at the blades to see if it is working and we haven’t left the stop/switch on.”
