DistGen are a wind power developer with a unique approach. They use refurbished turbines to deliver an even more sustainable approach to wind power. In the case of Distgen Hinton, they used a turbine that had been operating for 9 years in the Netherlands that was completely dismantled, its parts thoroughly inspected and cleaned, before being installed at its new home in South Gloucestershire. Funds from this investment were used to refinance this turbine to fund further projects in the DistGen pipeline.
