Global Wind Group Inc. (GWG) is a Winnipeg based company and began operations in September 2007, incorporated March 2008. Global Wind Group Inc. head office is located at the University of Manitoba Smart Park in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada.
GWG is a design manufacturer of vertical axis wind turbines and technology associated with wind energy. GWG also offers wind-testing/assessments and feasibility study services on a consulting basis to customers. Most importantly GWG is developing proprietary products for sale in the growing renewable energy market
1) GWG has 4 upper management team members and a solid partnership with two manufacturers with a combined total of approximately 200 production staff.
2) Our plants are ISO 9001:2000 registered and certified by Intertek to produce CSA/ANSI level commercial products.
3) The production real estate we have is approximately 200,000sqft with 125,000sqft specifically dedicated to inventory.
4) Our warehouse has 10 shipping bays.
5) We have 6 fully automated CNC turret punch press, 2 CNC punch/laser combo, 1 CNC laser, 10 CNC press brakes, 1 CNC tube laser, 10 welding stations, 1 robotic welder, and 500ft of assembly line.
6) We have 2 in-house paint booths and access to a powder coating facility as well.
After extensive research Global Wind Group Inc. has determined that vertical-axis wind turbines are the preferred design for small wind products for a number of reasons:
1) Insensitivity to turbulence, since vertical-axis wind turbines don't need to turn to face the wind, turbulence and varying wind conditions do not significantly affect performance
2) Minimal maintenance, with only one moving part maintenance is minimal
3) Frictionless breaks, greater safety and less wear and tear
4) Minimal noise, since the blades don't cut the wind noise production is almost eliminated
Global Wind Group Inc. believes that small wind turbines are better than large wind turbines for a number of reasons:
1) Insensitivity to turbulence, since vertical-axis wind turbines don't need to turn to face the wind, turbulence and varying wind conditions do not significantly affect performance
2) Minimal maintenance, with only one moving part maintenance is minimal
3) Frictionless breaks, greater safety and less wear and tear
4) Minimal noise, since the blades don't cut the wind noise production is almost eliminated
Global Wind Group Inc. believes that small wind turbines are better than large wind turbines for a number of reasons:
1) Spread the risk, don't put all your eggs in one basket
2) Small wind turbine installations are scalable, simply increase the number of turbines when more power is needed
3) Minimize distance between generation and usage, save money on transmission lines and reduce line-loss
4) More versatile placement, roof-mount or pole mount options are available
