Wind Powers Marine Research

Oy Windside Production Ltd has equipped Marine research centers, lighthouses, and international groups of scientists and other professionals since 1982.

Originally designed and developed
for harsh conditions, Windside wind turbines produce clean,
grid-free energy even in the most demanding environments. They
are corrosion-free and ice resistant, the features of which are
a priority for professionals looking for reliable and low-maintenance
equipment.

For light houses, the first Windside unit was delivered for
Trinity House light house in 1996 and is still operating loyally.
Mc Murdo was the first site in Antarctica, where turbines started
to operate in 2003. Those turbines are still in operation today.

Since then, the demand for autonomous power sources has
increased together with the need to understand the changing climate
and to tolerate extreme weather conditions. Windside wind
turbines enable the important work of researchers and other professionals
all over the world: Polar institutes, geological and natural
Institutes, Antarctic institutes and universities.

Turbines are loyal workers also in platforms, light houses,
buoys, vessels and ports, from decade till decade.
