Quietrevolution's QR5 wind turbine gives context to the use of wind power within an urban environment, where wind speeds are lower and wind directions change frequently. The unconventional shape revolves gracefully, adding aesthetic value to the surrounding environment. QR5's small footprint and adaptability allow it to be situated in a variety of locations--on the ground or on roofs of buildings. Each turbine has a life span of roughly 25 years and costs around GBP$30,000, paying for itself after about 15 years.
