The issue officially closes today and managing director Geoff Henderson was hopeful of some last-minute subscriptions.
The Christchurch-based company has set up its office and is about to employ designers and engineers to begin work on the specifications of the first wind turbine expected to be ready for testing in about eight months.
Support for the company's share offer came from more than 400 people throughout New Zealand, with several investors from Australia, the US and Europe.
The Christchurch City Council has agreed to buy the output of the company's first wind turbine planned to be operating by October, 2002.
Mr Henderson said power prices had firmed considerably as the result of this year's electricity crisis.
The Windflow share offer is based on prices increasing to 5-6c/kWh by 2005 and it appeared contract prices for the coming year had reached that level already, Mr Henderson said.
