    Off Grid windpark

    Hi Lionel Energy storage is the solution but at what ampere hour. Someone suggested 9600Ah with 400kw wind energy and 500kw of solar, but will the batteries sustain indutive loads beyond 2 hours

    Off Grid windpark

    Hi dpc The problem is that the site is coal mines with no grid network in the area, we are using diesel engines to run motors which is costing us $2k/day in fuel. 2500kwhr is the energy requirement based on daily load consumption

    Considering a base load of 250kw what if I install a hybrid plant having wind turbines, solar and energy storage(battery banks)

    Off Grid windpark

    The idea is to install at least 4 150kw wtg so their output at average wind speed will cover the loads because at average wind speed their output could be 50%.is energy storage essential in off grid network? If motors run all the time, what if I install solar in parallel, the sun is always...

    Off Grid windpark

    I want to set up an off grid windfarms where loads are mainly motors of total installed capacity of 300kw. I have no idea how many wind turbines I should install where average wind speed is 6.8m/s. What will be the ideal mix of generation and how it will be distributed. Can someone advise
