Quiet Revolution specializes in the design and manufacture of vertical axis wind turbines, with the Qr6 model being their flagship product. The Qr6 turbine integrates advanced engineering principles, utilizing composite materials such as carbon fiber to enhance performance while minimizing weight and maximizing durability. This innovative design aims to improve power generation and increase swept area, which optimizes energy capture in a variety of wind conditions. The helical blades are engineered to distribute loads evenly, resulting in minimal vibration during operation, making them suitable for both urban and rural environments.


Quiet Revolution targets global markets, providing solutions to businesses, municipalities, and residential customers seeking sustainable energy alternatives across regions including Europe, Asia, and North America. Quiet Revolution generated revenue of GBP 2,321,686. 10 in 2012, with an EBITDA of GBP -4,191,777. 80.


The company generates revenue through the direct sale of its Qr6 vertical axis wind turbines along with associated support services, engaging in B2B transactions with clients focused on integrating renewable energy solutions. Sales often involve partnerships with energy consultants or project developers to facilitate the adoption of Quiet Revolution’s technologies. Specific pricing details for the turbines are proprietary, with a business model emphasizing high-quality, durable products tailored for diverse energy needs. Following the acquisition in August 2013, Quietrevolution aims to leverage the latest funding to enhance product development and expand its market reach.


The company plans to introduce new iterations of its turbine technology targeted at both commercial and residential sectors, with specific focus on entering new geographical markets in Europe and Asia by 2015. The funding will support these initiatives, facilitating research and development processes to innovate further in sustainable energy solutions.
