Abstract: A blade system, has rows of blades extending radially outward along the length and around the circumference of a rotor of a low-profile ground-mounted wind turbine which is particularly suited for use in remote locations. The wind-engaging end of each blade is arc-shaped and is turned about 120 degrees to maximize efficiency. Preferably, two rotors having the unique blade system are connected to a single, centrally located generator, and the entire unit is mounted on a frame which is rotatable on wheels about a central shaft. Further, a circular track is provided in for engaging the wheels for ease of rotation of the unit either under the direction of a PLC or in yaw.
