Sauer Energy, Bionics forge wind turbine joint venture in Asia-Pacific

US-based wind turbine manufacturer Sauer Energy has forged a joint venture with Bionics Global to foray into wind energy sector in the Asia-Pacific market.

As a part of partnership, Bionics Global, which operates wholesale distribution centres throughout Asia, will launch Sauer’s WindCharger and HelixWind turbines to the Asia-Pacific region.

Sauer is set to commence producing the US made wind turbines during the latter half of 2013.

Bionics Global CEO Edwin Cho stated that the alliance would mark the foray of Sauer’s patented technology in Asia that is currently tackling energy shortage problems.

"That will be especially true in those regions that aren’t served by hugely expensive power grids," added Cho.

"There is nothing like WindCharger technology available anywhere in Asia, and my management team is thrilled to be part of this exciting venture."

The company anticipates the launch of these products would further help in reducing dependence on nuclear sector.

Bionics claims that its strong network would enable a strong launch.

Sauer Energy CEO and president Dieter Sauer remarked that the company expects reliable sales potential in the Asian market.

"SEI’s proprietary ownership of the WindCharger and HelixWind technologies open up the entire world for clean, self-sustaining, cost-effective energy," Sauer said.

"But while the potential is huge within North America, even that is over-shadowed by the desperate demand in Asia — and later in Africa."

"Most of those regions have no power grid infrastructure, because they’re unaffordable, and SEI’s low-cost technology offers a practical and immediate solution."
