Ampair has been manufacturing high quality renewable energy power systems in the UK for nearly forty years. Ampair turbines are renowned internationally for their durability in extreme environments. With nearly 30,000 systems sold to date, our turbines and power systems are currently providing power to equipment in virtually every country and ocean on the globe.
In recent times Ampair has extended it's capabilites to provide turn-key containerised power supplies for offshore wind measurement platforms. Our systems are a hybrid of wind, solar and diesel technologies, using trusted components such as the ultra reliable Ampair 600 wind turbine. Our containerPods are designed to house all of the platforms electrical control equipment, such as navigation aids, communications, wind measurement and logging and have the facility to provide accomodation and or workshop space if required. We design our systems to be 'single lift' to reduce vessel mobilisation costs. Our systems are proven reliable in the harshest of environments.
Increasing energy costs, security of supply concerns, or government subsidies, grants or tax relief is driving a massive international uptake of grid-connect small scale renewable power systems. Grid-connect small scale renewable energy systems are now the norm in many countries around the world. Ampair offers both wind and hydro 6kW grid connect systems along with one of the smallest grid connect wind turbines available – the award winning Ampair 600.
Since the 1970's, Ampair has produced a variety of custom wind and solar renewable energy power supplies for customers, with these units being deployed in some of the most inhospitable places on earth. During this time, we have proven that it is possible to power equipment reliably with a range of easy to deploy, renewables powered systems that vastly reduce the running costs associated with traditional diesel remote site power systems. Whether your requirement is for an onshore, offshore, desert or arctic deployment, we have a packaged power system that will power your equipment reliably - year round.
Ampair has been manufacturing 'microwind' battery charge wind turbines for nearly 40 years. This has given us plenty of time to iron out any problems. Our Ampair 100, 300 & 600 turbines are now regarded as the professional's turbine of choice, giving owners trouble free generation for decades. You can rely on an Ampair.
Ampair was borne from the original Ampair 50, one of the world's first wind power generators for the yachting community. Since the early 1970's when this product was first released, Ampair has released larger 100 Watt, then 300 Watt, then 600 Watt turbines built to the same exacting marine specification. To complement the fleet we produce the Aquair, towed (or taffrail) generator which gives the vital power needed by the serious cruising sailor. Our regulators are also renowned for their durability and input configuration flexibility – why have an extra regulator for your solar panels?
Ampair offers two hydro turbine solutions at opposite ends of the scale, A 100W in water 'UW100' 'picohydro' turbine and a 6-10kW dual regulated Kaplan turbine. The UW100 can be submerged to 10 meters and is used around the world to power ocean or river based agricultural/scientific equipment or log cabins next to mountain streams. The Ampair DRK HT Hydro turbine is designed to be used at a variety of inland waterway sites and is particulary useful at sites with a low head such as old water mills and wiers.The HRK turbine has undergone four years of real world testing and has delivered excellent performance throughout.
