Cleanfield Energy™ Corp. is a subsidiary of Cleanfield Alternative Energy Inc. which is listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange under the stock symbol AIR (TSXV-AIR).

Cleanfield develops, markets and distributes proprietary, renewable energy products. The Company currently develops and markets small wind turbines through authorized renewable energy dealers, distributors and direct channels. Our Vertical Axis Wind Turbine(VAWT) (known also as V3.5), features three-metre long vertical blades that rotate around a central axis. These wind turbines are designed for both tower (ground-mount) and rooftop installation (roof-mount) and can produce clean renewable energy for commercial, industrial, retail, institutional, agricultural and residential markets. Cleanfield’s future product lines will include a 250kW universal inverter (power range 30 to 250kW), larger wind turbines and nanowire solar technology.



Ontario Centres of Excellence – Centre for Earth and Environmental Technologies.



OCE recognized the potential of Cleanfield’s original prototype and invested $250,000 through its Collaborative Research Program to advance its testing. The investment also allowed Cleanfield to partner with McMaster’s Mechanical Engineering Department to enhance the design. Furthermore, the OCE and the Department of Engineering Physics at McMaster University have formed a partnership to pursue the commercialization of nanowire technology and OCE has agreed to provide an aggregate of $275,000 in funding over the three-year term.

OCE has also provided networking and training programs such as the Discovery 07 and 08 conferences which showcase the small wind turbine in front of numerous dignitaries, politicians and hundreds of invited guests.

In 2008, Cleanfield was a finalist for the “Mind to Market” Award. The criteria for the award was based on the ability of an Ontario-based company to introduce innovative technology for the environmental and renewable energy sectors and to advance such technology and/or product(s) to a commercialization stage.


McMaster University – Department of Mechanical Engineering



McMaster University has been an R&D and testing partner of Cleanfield’s V3.5 since 2005. In collaboration with the Ontario Centre of Excellence, the Department of Mechanical Engineering has facilitated in taking the small wind turbine from prototype to commercialization. Cleanfield is also working in collaboration with McMaster University and the OCE in the research, development and commercialization of Nanowire Photovoltaics.


Mohawk College



Cleanfield Energy™ has begun the initial steps towards developing a certification program for small wind installers with Mohawk College’s Skilled Trades and Apprenticeship Research, Resources and Training (STARRT) Campus.

As part of this partnership, Cleanfield, with the assistance of Mohawk College, installed 2 rooftop wind turbines on its Stoney Creek Campus in September 2008. The 2 small wind turbines are part of the future LEED designation the college hopes to achieve.
