Product Summary:
The single most important thing to determine when choosing your home power system is how much electricity it will generate. Wind turbines are usually listed by their rated power (or rated capacity).
Full Product Description:
Wind generators are generally designed to yield maximum output at high air speeds. Likewise, the manufacturers rate their systems by the amount of power they can produce at a specific high wind speed, typically 24 mph (10.5 m/s) to 36 mph (16 m/s).
To calculate an average amount of energy a system can generate annually, Battelle Laboratories estimated an actual average annual wind wattage density in various US regions, rather than simply mean air speed. They introduced a numerical rating that corresponds to one of the seven wind power classes. Each class represents a range of power density values based on the computer analysis of historical data. A similar mapping for Europe was done by Riso Laboratory.
