2Renewable Energy
- Renewable energy, n. (ree-noo-uh-bul
en-er-jee). Forms of energy that derive and
quickly replenish from the natural movements and
mechanisms of the environment - sunshine, wind,
the heat of the earth, the growth of plants and
animals, and the movement of the seas and rivers.
3Wind Power
- Wind Power is
- Grid Tie directly connected to the Grid
- Grid Tie Battery Backup connected to Grid with
Automatic Transfer switch - Off Grid Battery system not connected to Grid
- Installed at individual homes, farms, businesses,
schools, etc. - High reliability, low maintenance
4Wind PowerIn Texas
Dallas / Ft Worth Metroplex wind is considered to
be a class 2 this means the average wind
speeds are 11-14 MPH

5SIZE OF TURBINE
6Distributed Wind Energy Scale Does Matter
- Utility-Scale Wind Power 600 2000 KW wind
turbines - Installed on wind farms, 20 300 MW
- Professional maintenance crews
- 13 mph (6 m/s) average wind speed

7Wind and the Issues
- Noise
- Most large scale turbines are way out in the
country - Most small scale wind turbines are quieter than a
standard AC unit - Run Away
- Automatic and Manual Shut Down
- Fall Zone
- 150 of tower height as radius
- Site Consult / Assessments
- Wind turbine Candidate -???
- Real Cost saving on Power bills
- GREEN Energy
- TRANSMISSION LINES..
8NOISE LEVELS
- Large Turbine Sound
- 64dB at 100 feet
- 58dB at 200 feet
- 52dB at 400 feet
- Small Turbine Sound
- Generally not audible
- inside a home
- Quieter than most AC

9Small Scale Wind
- Small Wind Power is 2.0 KW - 100 KW turbines
- Installed at individual homes, farms,
businesses, schools, etc. - On the customer side of the meter, or off
the grid - High reliability, low maintenance
