Customers turn to small-scale wind power

evoco Energy, the specialist in small-scale wind turbine technology, is reporting strong demand for its products as farmers, homeowners and those with commercial property look to realise the benefits of harnessing wind energy.

The company expects to have an installed base of approximately 500 active sites across the UK by the end of 2011.

Managing director Ryan Gill said: “Small-scale wind may have lagged other renewables in the past, but we are seeing strong momentum through 2011 and beyond, and believe that the UK’s wind resource represents an opportunity for an economic boom comparable to the exploitation of North Sea oil in the 1970s.”

The firm is based in Brighouse.
