Avant Garde innovations (AGI), a startup, has promised of an affordable wind turbine that can be used in houses to generate daily electricity needs and may cost around INR50,000.
The founders of AGI, Arun and Anoop George said, “This will bring down the cost of setting up a windmill from INR2,00,000 to INR50,000 per kilowatt”. This wind turbine of 1KW capacity produces five units per day, which is sufficient for a middle class household.
One important feature of this turbine is, it can generate power even at low wind speeds and still can meet the requirement of providing sufficient power to the household. It is currently pending for patent approval. In fact, The United Nations Foundation has approved this design. i.e., this turbine received recognition from The UNF.
The company has received many offers from foreign countries only because, this turbine’s design is so simple that it can be used as hydel or tidal turbines and also with a few modifications as an automobile motor.

We would like to install one wind turbine in Mysore. Please let us know how we can go about it
Hi Krishna Reddy, installing a wind mill alone will not give you adequate power. so go for a solar-wind hybrid model – http://www.ecoideaz.com/expert-corner/solar-wind-hybrid-power-units-villages
Is there any technology in India where we use wind power to heat water
Hi Chetan,
sorry we have not found any technology that helps in heating water through wind energy. But you can explore heating water through solar energy
Wind turbines are not the answer when they kill so many birds, we need to look at alternative environmentally friendly solutions that benefit everyone and everything.
There are no credible studies that prove wind mills kill birds. Please note how birds know how to navigate away from planes, same way they can manage with wind mills
Need to install a solar wind hybrid model.
What would the cost be and output.
Hi Rahul ,
Thanks for your interest. Please contact us on [email protected] for detailed information .
When wind is no available than it works?
No Fayaz, a wind mill works only when there is wind! if you want continuous power supply, then go for solar wind hybrid systems
Hi ..I would like to get more details of the setup and am planning to install around 10 different Mills at different locations . Kindly contact back so as to discuss the plan for the same. Also if you could forward a brochure for the same.
Yes Nitesh , we will send you the details by mail soon.
How should I contact you ?
I need one for my home !
Please send brochure and discussion details ASAP.
Hi Manigandan,
