Kohilo Wind (https://kohilowind.com) is a manufacturer of non-traditional wind turbines that require less than 3 miles per hour of wind velocity to operate. The company says its turbines are “unique” in that they condition the wind through a diffuser system not used in traditional turbines. That harnesses the energy more efficiently and increases power production, even at low wind speeds, it says.

The company sells turbines for rooftops, grain silos, gazebos, towers, ballasts, mobile wind trailers, lighting poles, boats, RVs, ATVs, golf carts, and new handheld wind-powered cell-phone chargers, according to its Facebook page.
