Philéole Sailing
The mini nautical wind turbine Philéole “Grain Blanc” designed especially for sailboats.
The Philéole “Grain Blanc” vertical axis wind turbine is designed for sailboats and revolutionizes on-board energy.
Advantages of the “Grain Blanc” wind turbine
The silent and efficient Philéole mini-wind turbine has been designed to meet the electricity needs of sailing boats. It can charge the batteries used to power all electronic devices.
Quiet: The vertical axis wind turbine does not produce any noise pollution unlike conventional wind turbines.
Light: The choice of an aluminium structure allows for a considerable reduction in weight.
Autonomous: Thanks to its specific regulator, the wind turbine does not need any manipulation after installation. The regulator linked to the wind turbine keeps the batteries charged in all circumstances. It will shut itself down in case of a storm.
Discreet: The mini wind turbine is installed on the mast of the boat. Placed high up, it can capture stronger winds. It does not obstruct the deck of the boat and eliminates any risk of accident.
How does our vertical wind turbine work?
At sea
The Philéole “Grain Blanc” wind turbine covers basic energy needs in navigation: lights, radar, VHF radio, GPS, navigation center, computer, lighting, etc.
At the berth
Throughout the winter, the “Grain Blanc” wind turbine keeps the batteries perfectly charged and ready to go sailing, while allowing a dehumidifier to run.
