Eoltec 6kW Wind
Turbine |
|
The Eoltec 6kW wind turbine can produce enough
power to supply a single house (including a good amount towards
the heating).

The two bladed machine
comes with its own self supporting tower (12m) and can be
connected in two ways:-
- Grid-Tie - (connected into the mains
supply9national grid))
- Battery system - (charges a battery bank)
for remote/'off-grid' locations.
| Eoltec (Scirocco)
As can be seen in the picture here, the
Eoltec stands on a 12meter self supporting tower, has
two blades and in an 'up-wind' machine. With an
up-wind machine the blades are the first to hit the wind
and the tower is second. The advantage of this
type of system is that the blades catch clean wind for
maximum output. the disadvantage in this case is
that there needs to be a tail to steer the turbine into
wind.
Erected using a winch and pole, this
turbine is simple to install and service.
There is an electrical isolator switch
at the base of the tower (behind the tower door) for
easy isolation. The break handle is also at the
base of the tower. The break is a sophisticated
pitching mechanism that rotates the blades, in turn
causing them to stall. This is a neat idea usually
only found on much larger turbines. |

We are now stocking Eoltec wind
turbines along with our Proven range. We can do a
complete installation (turn key job), or supply only so
please contact us for a
quote or further information.

Costing;
The grid-tie system is the most popular at around £20,000 (guide
price only).
For those with no mains power
there are battery systems. The battery system includes a
bank of batteries to store the power and so costs a little more
at £28,000 (guide price only). Also, all renewable energy
systems are charged at a 5% VAT rate not 17.5%!
