GE 'Your Wind Turbine In A Box'

I’ve finally managed to snag a model wind turbine. Thanks to Jay Wilgar at AIM Powergen, I now have a GE Your Wind Turbine in a Box 1/265 scale turbine, complete with tiny plastic cow.

    That’s so cute! Does it have batteries, so you can use it as a desk fan in summer? ;)

    Sorry, no. It’s taken me some years in the industry to get one.

    Sir,

    I’m with the Rhode Island (USA) Wind Alliance. Our director had a similar model but recently as it was on display at a event it took a spill to the disappointment of us all.

    Any tips for tracking a new one down?

    Best,
    Warrick

    Talk to your GE dealer, Warrick. These are probably the easiest ones to get. Vestas, Siemens and Enercon are harder to get.

    I work at Vestas. These models can be bought by all Vestas employees in the company store.
