3D Product Demo

The first small wind generator designed specifically for grid-connected residential use, Skystream 3.7™ from Southwest Windpower lets Americans harness wind energy and take control of their energy bills like never before.

Specifically for Grid-Connectivity

Skystream 3.7™ is specifically-designed for grid-connected home and business use. In certain states consumers can take advantage of ‘net-metering,’ or the sale of unused energy back to the power grid.

Low Cost

A wind power engineering breakthrough, Skystream 3.7™ is the first residential wind appliance to produce energy at a cost ($.09/kWh) that is lower than the retail rate of many electric utilities. Depending on the tower and installation costs, wind speed average, rebates and local electricity costs, Skystream 3.7 can pays for itself in as quickly as 4 years.

All-in-One Solution

Skystream 3.7™ offers a simple, all-in-one solution to harnessing wind energy on a residential scale. Different from all other technologies, Skystream 3.7™ is the first all-inclusive wind generator with the controls and inverter built in.

Energy Production in Exceptionally Low Wind

Designed for very low winds, Skystream 3.7™ begins producing power in an 8 mph breeze with full output achieved at 20 mph.

Low Profile

Skystream 3.7™ can be mounted on a 35 ft. tower. This means a vast number of households on one acre or larger lots will now have access to residential, grid-connected wind energy. A site assessment is important to determine the best tower height for your site.

Exceptionally Quiet

OperationSkystream 3.7™ operates exceptionally quietly. In fact, Skystream 3.7™ is unrecognizable over trees blowing in the wind.
