Hugh Piggott Wind Turbine Kits
We have been building Hugh Piggot turbines for over 8 years and are able to provide full bespoke kits or separate components. Bespoke kits comprise a set of three hand-carved blades, alternator and mounting. The turbines can be installed as a grid-tie or to charge a battery bank and can come as 12V, 24V, 48V or higher voltages for use with grid tie inverters. Click for more info
