Maximizing Turbine Efficiency!
The Next-Generation Turbines Drive-Train
We are currenlty in stealth-mode!
For the last couple of years, our multi-skilled research team has been working hard to develop a new drive-train technology that can ‘unlock’ the development of the next-generation wind turbines.
The new drive-train surpasses PWM and MPPT controls. Delivering a significantly higher and “grid-ready” output while eliminating costly, maintenance-heavy converters and gearboxes.
Next Generation Turbine Technology
Improved Rated-Speed
Optimized rated-speed (approx 6-7 m/s) for a significantly better performance in low wind conditions.
Significantly more Efficient
Introducing a new ‘region’ in the power-curve of wind turbines delivering more output at lower and higher wind speeds.
Factor 2x Improved LCOE
Eliminating the need for converters, significantly reducing costs, and simplifying the system.
Collaborate and/or Invest
Our R&D is currently in ‘stealth-mode’.
The Fundamental Research phase (TRL 0-3) has been completed, which proves that the new drive-train technology is scientifically feasible.
We are slowly introducing our team and innovation to industry partners and Cleantech Funds to accelerate the Applied Research phase (TRL4-6).
We are open to joint ventures with established industry partners and investment from cleantech/deeptech/high-tech funds.
Do not hesitate to contact us for more details about the new drive-train innovation and to discuss partnership or investment opportunities.

GRANT PROJECT: GLOW - Greenhouse Local Wind Energy Generation
Wattrogen Advances the Future of Wind Energy with EU Support
At Wattrogen, we're at the forefront of cutting-edge research and development in wind energy. Supported by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) under the Opportunities for West program, our project focuses on creating an innovative wind turbine technology. This includes a novel electromagnetic variable transmission system and an advanced control mechanism, suitable for both Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs) and Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWTs).
Currently, our R&D is in a stealth phase, where we're collaborating with leading industry partners and research institutions to refine this technology. The project's objective is to develop and test a prototype of a 15kW distributed wind model. We're targeting applications within the greenhouse horticulture sector, partnering with innovators like Penning Freesia. This sector presents unique opportunities for the local generation and consumption of renewable energy.
