Founder:
Miles Postlethwaite used to work
for Windharvester Ltd, one of the then British wind turbine
manufacturers specialising in medium and small machines.
He gained valuable and unique experience with self-contained
systems, often involving a wind turbine linked to a water
turbine, providing power to remote communities, far away from
any mains supply.
When that company ceased to trade in 1994, Miles created Turbine
Services, initially to provide servicing and technical support
for existing Windharvester installations.
As time went by, however, Turbine Services has modified some of
these installations using our lengthy experience to make design
improvements to both the machinery and control electronics.

What we do:
Turbine
Services can provide off-the-shelf wind and water
turbines complete with their control gear or one-off
systems to suit a customer's special needs.
Ten years
ago we began servicing wind turbines and more recently
have diversified into installation and servicing
micro-hydro energy systems.
We are
available to give advice, install and service small
scale wind, micro hydro and hybrid systems throughout
the UK and off-shore islands.
Turbine
Services strongly believes in the benefits of using
renewable natural resources. The UK is estimated to have
40% of the wind energy source in Europe. Our maritime
climate provides us with an opportunity to use natural
energy sources that will help cut the emissions of CO2
that cause global warming.
