Maintenance and operational costs of the wind turbines which consists of insurance cost regular maintenance repair and.
Add wind turbine to solar panels.
Doing so adds extra weight on blades and hence reduces the power output of the wind turbine.
You mean place solar panels on the tower nacelle or blades.
Hi i have a solar battery charging systems that i want to add a small wind generator to.
Cleantec s idea is to add lightweight narrow profile wind generators to the top edge of solar panels.
Wind generators and solar panels can be hooked up together through the same wiring system.
The cost of installing wind turbines is quite high compared to that of solar panels.
Buy a good quality turbine with a voltage phase controller cable from the turbine to your home the thickness depending on the wattage and voltage of your turbine a controller a dump load and of course extra wiring fuses and connections.
Which is 16 000 compared to the 10 000 average cost of 4 kw generating solar panels.
You simply need to do some research and purchase a controller that is capable of handling both systems.
Solar power can just be shut off with no damage to the panels but wind generators must have a constant load or they will free spin and damage the generator and because they produce all the time you have to have a controller that will dump excess power to an appliance like a water heater.
A 10 kw turbine can cost 40 000 or more without shipping and cost of installation.
It can be relatively cheap to add a wind turbine to a solar system as you already have a battery bank.
The solar panels would be constantly rotating with the blades so they will fac.
This would put the wind generators a few feet above the ground and in the very turbulent air.
