Velocity Wind Turbines - Fast FAQs
-
What is Distributed Wind?
Distributed wind is the common term used to describe the deployment and use of small scale wind turbines to provide electricity at the point of consumption, such as businesses, homes, and public facilities.
-
Why is Urban Wind Power Important?
Urban wind power remains a largely untapped resource since conventional wind turbines are not well suited to any type of metropolitan area. Velocity Wind Turbines are designed specifically for safety, ease of installation, and near silent operation.
-
Does Wind Power Work With Solar?
Yes. Wind and solar work perfectly together. In fact many components can be shared, including wiring, battery storage, and in some cases inverters. Depending on your location, wind power is a perfect complement to solar power.
-
Do I Need a Grid Connection?
The systems we design may be used for both on-grid and off-grid applications. For off grid applications, battery storage is required, which we can provide. Battery storage is also an excellent investment for areas with known grid instability issues.
-
Is Wind Power a Good Choice for Me?
This depends on your location and local wind conditions. If you notice consistent winds or breezes in your area, then the answer is probably yes. We can perform an analysis of your location using NOAA wind mapping, or ship a test data anemometer unit to you for an on-site analysis.
