Wind Power

Wind power & Wind turbine discussion

  1. Started by SilverNodashi,

    Hi, Is it advisable to mix wind and solar power? If so, which charge controller(s) would you recommend, if I already have an Axpert inverter? Would you simple put a wind charge controller directly on the batteries?

    anybody got any that they have built?

  3. I tried a GTI with a high voltage wind turbine (2 KW).The problem is the time it takes to sync with the grid voltage. It takes a few minutes to sync and the wind speed always varies. To me it seems it is not viable to try and connect small wind turbine with GTI, maybe with the bigger turbines 10 KW and up it will work better. I could be doing something wrong cause i am not an expert in this, it seemed like a fairly straight forward set-up to me. Has anybody tried connecting a small wind turbine to a GTI and did you experience any problems in doing this? Regards Regie
