Raum Energy Inc. was a company based in Saskatoon, Canada which designed and manufactured small-scale wind turbines, grid-tie inverter and battery charge controller systems. These systems, which could run off of either wind or photovoltaic generated power, were specifically designed for use with residential-scale applications. The company's 1.3 kW turbine was one of the first systems setup for testing at Canada's Wind Energy Institute for to participate in a national study into the reliability and performance of small-scale generator systems.[1]

The company's flagship system combined a 3.5 kW turbine with a grid-tie inverter or battery charge controller and could generate 6,000 kW-hrs of energy annually.[2][3] This system was set to also begin testing at WEICAN in April 2010.[4]

Raum Energy Inc. was awarded the 2009 Western Canadian National Research Council's award for innovative new technology.[5]
