Farmers used to use windmills to pump water and grind grain, now you can use wind to power your entire operation!
Thinking About Installing A Turbine On Your Property? Site Considerations…
One of the most critical factors in wind energy production is providing unobstructed air flow to the turbine blades. The impact of air flow from buildings, trees, and other obstacles is sometimes overlooked, often underestimated, and can have a significant impact on system performance.
The rule of thumb is that wind turbines should have a hub height of at least 30 feet above any obstruction 300 feet or closer, based on the direction of the prevailing winds. If your house is 30 feet tall and you want the generator next to it, your tower height must be at least 60 feet at the hub. Likewise, if you have even a single tree or obstacle that interferes with prevailing wind, you must be at least 30 feet above the impediment.
Most effective small wind systems are at 50-60 feet or taller (ours are 80’), as higher is better. Remember, increasing tower height is much harder after the generator has been placed. Also, consider in your calculations that adjacent trees may continue to grow in height and plan for any additional building construction (including that of neighbors) that might hinder the delivery of air to the unit.
I wanted to share this wind resource map of the United States (30m = 98.4252 ft) as you can see there is a lot of wind rich area. Feel free to contact for more accurate and precise info for your site. I can help answer your questions and purchase your turbine no matter where you are located as they are manufacturer installed by their own team. We only use local electricians and excavators.
