About Us!

---

A background in Electrical and Renewable Systems Engineering along with many years experience in within the small wind industry means SWTCo Ltd, based in Staffordshire, can offer servicing, repairing, replacing and decommissioning of small scale wind turbines.  

Tom Hodkinson founded SWTCo Ltd in 2019, after working for a distributed wind turbine manufacturer since 2013. Prior to this Tom gained a masters in Electrical and Renewable Systems Engineering, specialising in wind energy.

Having gained invaluable field knowledge as a Project Manager of Installation and Service at XZERES, he wanted to continue to support small scale renewable energy systems. With SWTCo Ltd becoming an approved installer for SD Wind Energy, one of the UK's leading small wind turbine manufacturers, it allowed us to do just that. 

Initially given the high Feed in Tarriff rates, it attracted many unsuitable installers and manufacturers to join the industry, who subsequently went out of business.  This left numerous turbine owners without the backup of the OEM or a service provider to keep their turbines operating.  This lack of support has meant that many owners have lost out on their investments and are, in some cases, left with a redundant turbine that could be generating them energy and possibly an income. 

If all of this sounds familiar, SWTCo Ltd can try and source replacement parts or alternatively replace the turbine head.
