Michael Reynolds and business partner David Samuel, pictured, were representing one of five small businesses exhibiting on the Advantage West Midlands stand at the event, after the organisation helped to fund Samrey’s purchase of a £5,000 injection moulding tool to make parts for its turbines.

The company eventually want to provide countries in the developing world with the eco-friendly products.

Michael, who created MDF models of wind turbines before turning to the real things, said: “I began thinking about the number of people in developing countries who have to walk for miles just to get fresh water.

“I wanted to do something to help, and wind turbines can be used to power water pumps in these countries. “There is a huge market for wind turbines and it is continually developing.”

The pair launched their Wren Micro-turbine at the business-to-business exhibition. The turbine measures one metre in diameter and stands six metres high when mounted on a roof or tower.

It is designed for domestic use or in any location without access to the National Grid. One Wren Micro-turbine could generate up to 40 kWh of renewable energy per month.

Michael and David are also developing a larger Mistral turbine and are in talks to manufacture the devices in the USA.

Bron Ellis, of B2B Portfolio, said: “Samrey is a very worthwhile business that has extremely admirable intentions.

“It could result in the lives of thousands of people changing for the better and we are sure the company generated a lot of interest at the event.”
