Small Business Q&A: Adrian Kelly

Well, we’re an intellectual property and patent company that develops renewable energy technology. We’re based in Granard, Co Longford and were established in 2008. I am one of five co-founders and since then we’ve raised approximately €5.5m in investment and have 16 full-time employees, along with more part-time employees too. Right now, the core of the business is wind turbine technology. Our turbines would be next generation wind turbines, a step-up from the ones we’d all be familiar with. Our turbines are smaller, quieter and can operate on low wind speed sites. So they don’t need to go on the coast or on high ground for them to work efficiently.
