The Most-Used Wind Turbines for Telecommunication Sites
No matter how much or how little energy your site requires, we have a small wind turbine to match your needs. Installing just one Southwest Windpower turbine on your site can save thousands of dollars per year of generator run-time. And our AIR wind generator can be installed in just a few hours without a tower.
How Can a Small Wind Turbine Help on Your Site?
If your remote site has an average 9 mph (4 m/s) wind resource or better (whether the site is grid-connected or off-grid with a battery bank), a small wind system will work. Every time the wind blows, an AIR wind turbine reduces the run time on your gas generator, saving hundreds or even thousands of dollars per year in fuel costs.
It’s easy to install, too. The AIR can be attached to the side of an existing communications tower using available hardware, then connected directly to your batteries.
See the chart below to determine whether our AIR fits your needs, or if you require something larger such as our Whisper or Skystream 3.7 turbines.
The chart below shows the estimated kilowatt hours a month produced by each wind turbine. Your turbine’s performance may vary depending on its location.
