Harnessing the Power of Wind

NFU Energy is excited to announce two new wind installers, Infinite Energy and Alternative Energy Contracting (AEC), to our growing list of services for NFU members and our customers.

Wind turbines present an exciting alternative to solar panels and can even complement existing panels by offering better coverage for 24-hour usage. With the addition of battery storage, you can reduce your reliance on the grid and reserve energy for any time of day, offering greater flexibility than turbines alone.  

 

Unleashing the Potential of Wind Energy:

Wind turbines offer a compelling solution for reducing energy bills and enhancing energy security. With a lifespan of up to 25 years, they provide long-term protection against volatile energy prices. Turbines are available in a range of sizes, from 6kW to 250kW, making them suitable for single farmhouses or large estates. In terms of energy generation per kilowatt (kW), wind turbines outperform solar panels, while also occupying less ground space.

 

Finding the Right Fit:

If you're uncertain whether a wind turbine is suitable for your property, NFU Energy can help you assess key parameters such as wind speed, landscape characteristics, and proximity to neighboring properties. Our in-house consultants will ensure that any quotes provided by our installers are thoroughly reviewed, guaranteeing competitive pricing and a system tailored to your specific needs.

 

A Comprehensive Solution:

Our team at NFU Energy will facilitate the entire process, from initial discussions to system design, installation, and ongoing maintenance. By gathering essential data during our conversations, we'll connect you with the right installer for your project. Additionally, through our partnership with CT Planning, we can address any concerns related to planning permission for wind turbines. With expert advice grounded in the agricultural industry, we strive to make your transition to wind energy as smooth and hassle-free as possible.
