Wind Power Gets PersonalCADDO MILLS, Texas - With a heart for the environment and a desire to do her part, Nancy Riddick has been interested in renewable energy for years - long before it was en vogue. However, she could never justify spending the money. The Skystream changed all that. After ongoing research, Riddick stumbled upon the Skystream, which was not only significantly lower in price but generated much higher efficiency levels as well. She began looking for a local dealer but remained skeptical. "We were half-way expecting some slick presentation with vague answers and empty promises, but Charles knew the technology through and through," says Riddick of dealer Charles Crumpley of WeKnow Technologies. "Charles spent hours with us, and answered every question we threw at him with proven facts and statistics. His enthusiasm spilled over to us!" Take the affordable price, plus projected savings and the Skystream's attractive design, add Crumpley's passion and you've got yourself a deal - Riddick was sold. Although Riddick faced some minor resistance from Farmer's Electric Cooperative, who had never encountered grid-connected small wind before, she reports they have done a complete turn around. "Now they are just as interested and excited about the Skystream as we are! In fact, we are being featured in the 'Member Spotlight' section of the Cooperative magazine this month!" After one complete billing cycle with the turbine in use, Riddick saved 40 percent on her energy bill - and she's not looking back: "We just feel like this is a great investment all around. It was a pleasure working with a terrific company that offered a complete turn-key installation and met every expectation and promise throughout this entire process - and we are thrilled to be on the cutting edge of renewable energy technology!" WeKnow Technologies is based in Mesquite, Texas. www.weknow.net Ranch Reaps Benefits of Wind PowerWALL, S.D. - Ignoring the twirling blades of a wind turbine towering above their hay feeder, horses on Harlan Walker's ranch eat contentedly while wind-generated electricity keeps a nearby water tank from freezing. "It doesn't bother them at all," Walker said, watching the turbine spin. Read article Skystream Exceeds Expectations in Canadian ClimateTottenham, ON - I am very, very happy with Skystream, and after seeing first hand the quality of the components inside the turbine, I am certain all our customers will see many, many years of service. You guys have been great, and the only way we can say thank you is in the form of sales and service. We at Btek are happy to know that we can facilitate an installation in any type of weather. We have installed in 98 degree July weather and we are now installing 4 turbines in 20 degree January weather. As you can see, the turbines go through a wide range of temperature variation. We certainly are testing these turbines to their limits, with results that exceed our expectations in terms of power produced. The Skystream has proven and continues to prove itself worthy in our harsh Canadian climate. Once again, thanks for all the support and dedication your team at Southwest has given us. It is clear that you guys share the same passion for renewable energy as we do here at Btek. The Sky's the limit, and together we can do it one backyard or property at a time. Sincerely, Take Advantage of Spring Winds
