Let it blow
Wind turbines like stackable Helical fans will be installed at the Cayman Diving Lodge. The wind energy of our tropical breezes will be put to good use at the new lodge – there is something very satisfying about the act of using wind power to create energy to run air compressors to fill dive tanks. The 30 year averages for wind speed in Grand Cayman are between 7.1 to 9.7 mph, which are well suited to this particular model of turbine which has no minimum cut out speed. The model ‘SeaHawk’ shown in the photo is produced by Pacwind and is available in individual 500W modules or in a tower stack up to 5 units tall.
