Franklin Wind Energy Group manufactures and supplies the vertical axis wind turbines. The blades of the turbines are directly attached to the generator and there is no stress on bearings. Since the turbine blades are fixed on different planes, air flow is spread faster. This wind generator has no drive shaft to twist and torque.
