For all sizes

Small and medium size wind energy plans are an opportunity for all: private small and medium companies, farmers, local administrations and more.

In the lasts years a laws adjustment was made which favors the installation of small wind turbines in the country. Now the producer has a feed in tariff that makes it convenient to install small wind farms up to 200 kW.

Large wind turbines, up to certain limits, (limits depend on regional authorities) are also an interesting business opportunity. The process of obtaining permission has been simplified. The incentives of obtaining green certificates make the project worthwhile.

Most talk of kW to identify turbines sizes, however, the characteristics giving us most of the information about the annual energy output of a wind turbine are the rotor diameter and the hub height.

In Denmark, one of the countries where wind energy has a primary role, if you ask to a farmer the question: How much power does your turbine produce? he will reply, It has a 20 meters diameter. It is certain that he will not reply: It has a 50 kW generator.

Italian laws defines micro generation, as the energy produced by plants that have generators with a nominal power of less than 1 MW and a rotor diameter of less than 60 meters.
