Exactly what our home needed
The Atlas has been running beautifully at our place — quiet, steady output even in light wind, and the MyTESUP app makes it easy to keep an eye on. Really impressed with the build quality.

Atlas S67. Built once. 25 years of power.
Meet ATLAS — the world's best-selling vertical wind turbine, capable of generating power even by hand. Trusted at Arctic research centres, on California homes, and aboard Maersk and MSC fleet ships — wherever the wind is gusty, turbulent, or shifts direction.
This purchase includes the generator with built-in IoT charge controller. Blade set sold separately — three options for your site's wind profile.
Most small wind turbines have one blade set and a hard structural ceiling. Atlas ships with three optimised, swappable blade sets — each laser-cut from 1.2 mm high-strength aluminium, structurally tested to survive sustained operation at the upper limit of its design range:

Atlas uses the same premium 15 kW continuous-rated motor as the Magnum. At typical 1 kW output the motor runs at less than 7% load — cold-running, near-zero copper losses, service life exceeding 30 years.
Swept area is the cross-section of moving air the rotor intercepts. Power output scales linearly with swept area. Atlas's nominal dimensions: Ø 1030 mm × 1005 mm tall. A flat 2-blade design would give a rectangular envelope of just 1.04 m². But Atlas uses 3 blades at 120° in a bowed Darrieus profile — each blade curves outward at the middle and back inward at top and bottom. As the rotor spins this sweeps a curved envelope of ~2.0 m² effective area, plus a higher Cp from the 3-blade geometry — meaningfully more wind energy at every speed than a 2-blade flat rotor of the same diameter.
Wind power: P = ½ × ρ × A × V³ × Cp × η. Wind speed (V) is cubed — small increases produce dramatic output gains. Atlas's bowed 3-blade geometry reaches Cp up to 0.45 with Moderate-Wind blades (top of the vertical-axis range) combined with 95% electrical efficiency from the parallel-strand premium copper winding.

Bars scaled to 4.5 kW max. Low-Wind blade set: 2 kW peak at 18 m/s, 2–20 m/s range. Moderate-Wind blades: 3.8 kW peak at 25 m/s, 4–25 m/s range — sweet spot for windy inland sites. High-Wind blades (6 blades, reinforced): 4.5 kW peak at 35 m/s, designed to remain structurally intact at sustained 35 m/s storm exposure. ⚠️ Each blade set has a safe operating ceiling; swap before sustained winds exceed it. Below 6 m/s, typical horizontal-axis turbines generate nothing — Atlas keeps producing.
TESUP operates in the United Kingdom and 37 other countries — the world's leading household wind turbine and solar panel manufacturer. Our European production facilities make over 270 components in-house, from generators and electronic cards to laser-cut aluminium blades, silicon-steel stator laminations and mounting hardware. Atlas is built once, then operates for 25+ years. Stock-dependent delivery from one day to four months.

Honest answers on output, payback, siting and the three blade sets.
It depends on your average wind speed. At a typical home site of about 5 m/s the Atlas produces roughly 1,200–1,700 kWh per year; on a windy coastal or hilltop site of 6–7 m/s, around 2,000–3,500 kWh. Use the "Will it pay for itself?" calculator on this page to estimate the output for your exact wind speed.
At your local electricity price of about NZ$0.3/kWh and the NZ$1,299 price, the Atlas pays back faster the windier your site is — often within just a few years. After that the energy it generates is effectively free, and rising electricity prices shorten the payback further. Use the calculator on this page for an estimate at your exact wind speed.
The Atlas starts generating at just 2 m/s with its Low-Wind blades — about three times lower than a typical horizontal turbine. That very low cut-in means it keeps producing power in the light, gusty wind found around homes and in towns, not only on exposed sites.
Yes. As a vertical-axis turbine the Atlas is compact and omnidirectional — it captures wind from any direction without turning to face it, runs quietly, and handles the turbulent, shifting wind around buildings far better than a horizontal turbine. That makes it well suited to homes, rooftops and gardens.
Atlas comes with three swappable blade sets so you can tune it to your site: Low-Wind (2–20 m/s) is best for typical homes and starts in the lightest breeze; Moderate-Wind (4–25 m/s, up to 3.8 kW) suits windy inland and hill sites; and High-Wind (5–35 m/s, up to 4.5 kW) is built for exposed coasts and ridges.
For homes and built-up areas, vertical turbines like the Atlas usually win. They accept wind from any direction, start in lighter wind, run more quietly, and keep working in the turbulence and gusts that stall horizontal turbines. Horizontal turbines only tend to edge ahead on wide-open sites with steady, one-direction wind.
It is built to last. The Atlas uses a premium 15 kW continuous (22 kW peak) motor that runs at under 7% of its rating, so it barely works and is designed for a 30-year service life. With no gearbox, self-starting operation and corrosion-resistant laser-cut aluminium blades, it needs very little maintenance.
Yes. The Atlas is designed for grid-tied (on-grid) use with a compatible inverter and cabling, so it offsets the electricity your home draws from the grid and, where your supplier allows, can export any surplus. A charge controller and battery are not required for on-grid use.
No. Vertical-axis turbines have no fast-moving blade tips, so the Atlas runs quietly — quiet enough for residential gardens and rooftops. It is also designed and manufactured in Europe to high build-quality standards.
Yes. TESUP designs and manufactures its own wind turbines, solar products and accessories in its own factories, and delivers worldwide from local warehouses across many regions.

Hello, I purchased the Atlas 10 kW wind turbine along with the blade set, and it's working perfectly. Assembling the blade set was a bit of a challenge, and a few screws were missing, but everything came together in the end. Delivery took slightly longer than expected, but I’m very happy with the final result. Many thanks to the TESUP team. You have my full rating — 5 out of 5. I’m already considering buying an inverter as I plan to move fully off-grid. Wishing you all a great day. — Carina Magnus
I have set up 1 TESUP vertical 5 kW turbine, 2 small 12V turbines (from China), and a water turbine in my little creek that provides 200W constantly. All were set up by myself. I am satisfied and not planning to sell the TESUP.
Amazing product, working very efficiently. Impossible to find a similar alternative at this price point. Thank you TESUP!
