After obtaining sufficient site and usage information, assistance is available to help you decide on a practical configuration.
Many wind systems look great on paper, but fall short in the field especially at low-to-moderate wind sites. That leads to:
Sonsight Wind solves these issues with a small-wind platform engineered for simplicity, reliability, and measurable performance supported by third-party certification progress.
Our patented generator design more efficiently and cost-effectively generates power at lower RPM’s, thereby facilitating longer blades that harvest wind power over a larger swept area to cost-effectively generate more power in moderate winds.
to perform at our test site on a mountain ridge 5,100 feet above sea level with turbulent winds, we were forced to develop specialized control software to better deal with turbulent flow.
The blade design, which is naturally low-noise, is further aided by the low RPM’s allowed by the patented generator to provide quiet operation that is barely audible.
Aided by the lightweight generator design, the SS3 can be installed on a tilt-down tower with just two persons doing unpowered lifting and mounting. Furthermore, it employs an airfoil which generates lower thrust forces and therefore facilitates lower tower and foundation costs, Additionally, it bolts directly to existing Skystream towers on which it was tested throughout development.
We’ve applied for certification through the Small Wind Certification Council (SWCC) with power performance testing already underway We also anticipate UL listing by third Qtr 2026, followed by pilot deployments.
If you need clean, cost-effective on-site power or pay high or climbing utility bills and have at least ½ acre of land at a site with at least moderate winds, we would like to speak with you about a Sonsight system. Strong possible use cases include:
A dependable turbine solution designed for distributed wind applications and real-world conditions.
A balanced approach to resilient energy production by combining generation sources for better year-round performance.
After obtaining sufficient site and usage information, assistance is available to help you decide on a practical configuration.
Currently partnering with farms and greenhouses, and we are looking to partner with others as well (such as those listed above) for early adoption.
If you’re interested in reducing energy costs, improving resilience, generating on-site power or otherwise becoming a clean‑energy leader in your community, we’d love to talk
Small wind works best where you have consistent wind exposure and preferably clear airflow. The Sonsight turbine is designed to accommodate moderate winds and turbulence common across many rural and agricultural properties.
The SS3 is Sonsight Wind’s 3.5 kW small wind turbine platform, developed for distributed applications like those mentioned above.
It uses a patented segmented stator generator architecture designed to produce higher power at lower rotational speeds than other similarly rated generators, thereby allowing utilization of an oversized 4.4-meter rotor to capture more energy at moderate wind speed sites.
Sonsight Wind has applied for certification through the Small Wind Certification Council (SWCC), with power performance testing already underway. We also anticipate UL listing by third Qtr 2026.
The SS3 operates quietly and is barely audible.
Yes. The SS3 bolts directly to an existing Skystream tower, helping streamline deployment. Other existing towers can possibly also be adapted for use with the SS3.
