Renewable Energy To Power Jay Leno’s Garage

We know that Jay Leno is that popular talk show host. We also do know that he is one of those celebrities whose hobby is collecting cars – from the coolest to the vintage to the most expensive ones. But what we all just would be learning is that he would be powering his garage with renewable energy. He would be using wind power as well as solar panels.

Leno is saying that he would be using wind turbines made by PacWind. The turbines for Leno’s Green Garage would be able to create some 500 watts and its design is quite unique so much so that when tested it seems to be quite efficient. And this wind turbine has a name too – Seahawk.

The wind turbine in Leno’s Green Garage is going to be a vertical unit so much so that it does not consume much space. And when the wind blows hard, you would not even notice that the turbine is doing its job well for it would be silent as it works.
