Small wind power generator

What is a small wind turbine?

Small wind turbines are typically defined as those with power ratings of up to 100 kW. They are used to generate electricity for individual homes, small businesses, or agricultural settings, often as part of a standalone system or integrated into the local power grid.

Why should you use a small scale wind turbine?

Generate your own energy right where you need it with our small scale wind turbines and battery storage systems and reduce your carbon footprint, cut your energy bills and achieve greater energy independence. Designed and built in the UK, our first turbines were installed over 20 years ago and are still going strong.

Which small wind turbine should I buy?

The SD6 and SD6+ 6kW small wind turbine is our most popular model. It has been the best-selling small wind turbine in the UK and is regarded as the turbine of choice world-wide for over 25 years.

How much power does a wind turbine generate?

A roof-mounted wind turbine will generate 0.5–2.5 kWh, which will help reduce your grid reliance but won’t be enough power to completely replace mains electricity. Standalone turbines normally reach up to 15 kW, which will be more than enough power for all but the very largest properties. Can I make money from small wind turbines?

What is a SD6 wind turbine?

Available as Grid-Tied and Battery Charge, the SD6 small wind turbine is designed for those with a high energy demand, or for applications that require a greater level of power autonomy when used in an off-grid or hybrid system. The unique over-speed protection system, the delta rotor, ensures continuous energy generation during extreme winds.

What is the best home wind turbine?

It will also survive winds up to 90 mph, so it should still prevail if you do have the occasional extreme gust. While the Prime Windpower Air 40 remains the best home wind turbine for most people and a non-scary, affordable entry point, you may want bigger if you want more power. That’s just how it works for wind energy.
