But the DM article makes the usual mistake regarding the output - 5 kW's of electricity a day is meaningless. That turbine would likely have a MAXIMUM output of 5 kW, and it sure as hell won't produce it 24/7/365. If they really mean 5 kWh, that is an abysmal result - about 4% load factor. A more realistic 20% would give 24 kWh, and be a good figure to base boiling 300 kettles on. The £500 p/a saving is also comparable to Windcrop's claims, but since this poor unfortunate paid £20k for his waste of metal, he clearly hasn't done any payback calculations. Try 40 YEARS!!!<br /><br />Sorry, no sympathy from me...microdavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01352078582764696261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3508346572086151757.post-4232757021952801722013-07-21T10:07:44.613+01:002013-07-21T10:07:44.613+01:00Solar is probably better on balance.Solar is probably better on balance.James Highamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14525082702330365464noreply@blogger.com
