Unlike conventional horizontal axis turbines, Prosto’s advanced vertical axis technology offers many differences and greater design efficiencies. The team focused on developing a wind turbine technology that would address specific concerns. Please review the notes below and let us know if you have any questions.

The difference

How It Operates

High-efficiency vertical turbines operate from 2 m/s to over 60 m/s
(5 to 135+ mph) while continually generating power with its technologically advanced generators.
Operates regardless of wind direction.
Very low in noise pollution and environmentally safe for wildlife.

Turbine segments stack on top of each other to increase output capabilities.
Each segment produces 10kW of power with a direct shaft interface to each other.
This makes installation easy and fast, while maintenance can be performed at ground level.

Simple transportation of individual segments, generators,

between 50-70 years as compared to Horizontal Wind Turbines (20-25 years)

How It Works

One turbine segment is 10‘ x 10‘ which can produce up to 11.3 KW of power. Turbine segments are designed to stack easily on top of each other with the operation of a center shaft that interfaces each segment maximizing the power output. This construction makes installation fast and easy and also allows for maintenance to be performed at ground level. One full-stack of nine segments produces 100+ KW of power.

The Dog House

Great Performance

The new high-efficiency vertical turbines operate from 2 m/s to over 60 m/s (5 to 135+ mph) while continually generating power with its technologically advanced generators that operate regardless of wind direction.

Our proprietary software and technology setup, allows us to monitor the system remotely 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

This design provides very low noise pollution and is environmentally safe for wildlife.

Life Cycle Cost

Capable of generating energy for decades, to minimize the LCC.

How They Stack up

In this video, you will see how they quickly stack up using a small crane and a few specialists. Our Prosto Wind Towers are designed with safety in mind for the installers and maintenance people, as well as the local wildlife.
