portable wind turbines....

WE WOULD NOT PROMOTE PRODUCTS USUALLY, BUT ON THIS ONE WE WILL MAKE AN EXCEPTION... RENEWABLE/GREEN ENERGY DESERVES TO BE SEEN AROUND...

Sail Grand Prix (Sail GP) is known as the fastest race on water, using the wind to fly their incredible F50 boats at breathtaking speeds. Since they already master the wind on waves, it only made sense to harness that same power to run their event on land.

Apex Group Sail GP, Bermuda – Mobile Wind Turbine – Containerised Turbine (MC15)

 

We’ve built and supplied a custom, containerised portable wind turbine specifically for this event. Not only is this a feat of engineering, but it’s also the first-ever wind turbine on the island of Bermuda.

The containerised turbine is our MC15, a unique 15kW wind turbine that is stored, transported and operated in its own 40ft shipping container. When deployed on site, the container forms an integral part of the turbine base.

FEBRUARY 5, 2026 – LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM – SailGP, the most exciting racing on water, and leading global financial services provider, Apex Group, (“the Group”) have today announced a three-season extension to their global partnership, with the Group continuing to serve as the league’s Official Financial Solutions Partner through 2028.

Since 2023, Apex Group and SailGP have shared a united commitment to driving a positive impact, with a focus on advancing women’s empowerment globally – championing social inclusion in the sport of sailing, showcasing new possibilities, and creating meaningful opportunities for women on and off the water.

As part of the partnership, Apex Group supported the rollout of the first ever SailGP Women’s Accelerator Program. The program aims to address gender disparity, reflecting similar challenges across financial services and sport, by increasing female representation at senior levels and supporting more inclusive decision-making. Open to women across all SailGP departments – from on-water athletes, through to marketing, design and engineering –  the program has provided industry-leading development for its participants since inception.

SailGP Managing Director, Andrew Thompson, said: “We’re incredibly proud to extend our partnership with Apex Group for a further three seasons. They were the first partner in our global championship to support our gender equity initiatives and we are excited to continue or work together to create meaningful pathways for women to thrive both on and off the water.”

Apex Group CEO, Peter Hughes, said: “Our partnership with SailGP is genuinely impactful, and looking forward to seeing what boundaries we can break together in the coming years. We have always been aligned around a shared ethos of data-driven innovation, sustainability and gender equality. As we now expand our partnership to include Official Purpose Partner, we reinvigorate our commitment to drive positive change together. I’m looking forward to the next phase in leading our respective industries to create a more sustainable future.”  

As part of the expanded agreement, Apex Group and SailGP will partner on  research to examine some of the challenges women face when entering traditionally male-dominated industries, and to identify pathways to overcoming these barriers.

Apex Group is the title partner of SailGP’s 2026 return to Bermuda for the Apex Group Bermuda Sail Grand Prix (May 9-10, 2026) – a category they’ve retained since 2024. 

The financial services provider will also take on a new role assisting the global championship with ESG Reporting. This will include calculation and reporting of its carbon footprint (scopes 1, 2 and 3) in line with industry standards, and carbon reduction planning and delivery in line with SailGPs emission reduction target of 50% by 2030 (from a 2024 baseline), via their ESG services brand Holtara, part of the Apex Group.

MEANWHILE: CONGRATS...

Bermuda’s Great Sound delivered another spectacular weekend of SailGP racing as Australia’s Bonds Flying Roos claimed victory at the Apex Group Bermuda Sail Grand Prix on Sunday.

Competing in ideal foiling conditions mixed with tricky, shifting breeze, Tom Slingsby’s Australian crew defeated Spain’s Los Gallos and Germany by Deutsche Bank in a tense three-boat final to secure back-to-back SailGP event wins and a third title of the 2026 season.

But beyond the Australian victory, Bermuda also showcased what is quickly becoming SailGP’s premier rivalry. Across two days of racing on the Great Sound, Australia and reigning champions Spain consistently separated themselves from the fleet with superior tactics, cleaner maneuvers and remarkable consistency in Bermuda’s challenging conditions.

Spain entered Championship Sunday level on points with Australia after a strong opening day and briefly seized momentum with a dominant Race Five victory. But the Flying Roos responded immediately, taking control in Race Six before delivering a composed, clinical performance in the final.

The packed waterfront crowds were also treated to a breakthrough performance from Germany by Deutsche Bank, which reached its first final of the season after mastering Bermuda’s unpredictable breeze.

With New York next on the calendar, Australia leaves Bermuda firmly in control of the championship standings — but Spain’s performances on the Great Sound suggest the battle for the 2026 SailGP title is only heating up.
