Vertical Axis Wind Turbine on Display as 'Green' Technology on Emmy Award-Winning Reality Show

RENO, Nev., April 30 /PRNewswire/ -- In its network television debut, the Windspire(R) wind turbine, (www.mariahpower.com), a residential and commercial wind power appliance, was installed at the latest "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" project in Indianapolis for the show's season finale. ABC's award-winning show selected the Windspire wind turbine as the green technology because of its unique technology and consumer appeal. The two-hour season finale episode will air on ABC Sunday, May 17, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. EDT.

The Windspire is a 30-foot tall, propeller-free, vertical-axis wind turbine designed for harnessing wind power in urban, suburban and rural locations. It is the most affordable alternative energy appliance in the 1 kilowatt range. The unit's powerful, trim and sleek design enables it to blend in well with a variety of environments, making it an attractive alternative energy option for home owners.

The "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" show team was initially impressed with the Windspire's sleek design and quiet operation, but the small wind turbine quickly became the "star" of the job site, garnering much attention from the crew and surrounding community. Windspire's plug 'n produce(TM) design connects directly to the household power supply, offsetting electricity use and reducing energy costs.

Mariah Power donated the Windspire to the McFarland Family and partnered with Windspire dealers Blue Sun Renewable Energy (www.bluesunrenew.com) of North Carolina and Northwest Geothermal (www.northwestgeothermal.com/) to install the Windspire at the new home.
