HiVAWT DS3000 Receives SWCC Certification
We are excited to announce that our HiVAWT DS3000 wind turbine is now certified by the Small Wind Certification Council (ICC-SWCC)! Read the press release from the ICC here.


This certification enables the DS3000 turbine to be eligible for federal and state tax incentives up to 30%for wind energy, which can significantly reduce project costs for customers. Explore the available incentives and policies in each state at the DSIRE website.
It also enables easier consumer comparison of the many wind turbine products on the market, helping to decrease false claims and unethical marketing.
The results are summarized below:

It is important to note that these figures are dependent on various factors such as available wind resources, siting (where it is located, tower height, local obstructions, etc.), and turbine availability (e.g. downtime for maintenance), and the difference cannot be attributed solely to turbine technology. Therefore, with the right combination of variables, the performance of the turbines could be different.
The certification of the DS3000 opens up many opportunities for distributed wind energy to increase share in the energy mix and promote a more renewable future. It will be interesting to follow the impact of these changes in markets all over the world, starting right here in the U.S.
