Before proceeding with installing a small wind energy system, however, there are several important factors to consider. These include property size and local zoning laws, adequate
In this article we want to explain how smaller wind turbines work and when is small wind feasible. To explain how wind turbines work first we have to mention their components.
This introductory contribution is intended to provide an overview of small wind turbine classification options and an insight into the current market situation of available small wind

Small wind turbines, also known as micro wind turbines or urban wind turbines, are wind turbines that generate electricity for small-scale use. These turbines are typically smaller than those found in wind farms. Small wind turbines often have passive yaw systems as opposed to active ones. They use a direct drive generator and use a tail fin to point into the wind, whereas larger turbines have geared powertrains
