Oregon Wind Corp. - (propeller-style wind turbines)
Oregon Wind’s Helyx HE-100 offers homeowners a tool to reduce their consumption of fossil-based energy by generating their own clean, renewable power on site. Oregon Wind’s Helyx HE-100 Wind Turbine is a small, elegant “urban turbine” that offers affordable, portable, renewable power generation anywhere it is needed. Its design overcomes many of the limitations of propeller-style turbines (noise, vibration, bird kill), making it appropriate for urban environments. Oregon Wind’s Wind Turbines can be used along with a solar PV system to power an off-grid home. The Helyx’s elegant design atop a home’s roof becomes a flag of sustainability very much like the Prius in the driveway.

Akeena Solar - (alternating current solar panel system)
Akeena’s Andalay AC product is a game-changing improvement in rooftop solar system design and installation and is the solar industry’s first fully integrated solar system. Solar panels commonly output direct current (DC), which is channeled to an inverter and then converted to alternating current (AC). With the Akeena Andalay AC system, no inverter is needed. This creates a more reliable panel that maximizes performance, and drastically simplifies installation. The Andalay AC panel technology also minimizes the effect of shadows and tree shade on the system.
